It seems sort of reasonable, though there will be interesting concerns
about coherence and synchronization with generial purpose DMABUFs that
will need tackling.

Still it is such a lot of churn and weridness in the netdev side, I
think you'd do well to present an actual full application as
justification.

Yes, you showed you can stick unordered TCP data frags into GPU memory
sort of quickly, but have you gone further with this to actually show
it is useful for a real world GPU centric application?

BTW your cover letter said 96% utilization, the usual server
configuation is one NIC per GPU, so you were able to hit 1500Gb/sec of
TCP BW with this?
