Subject: [RFC PATCH 24/36] cifs: Add netmem allocation functions
Date: Tue, 19 May 2026 11:21:42 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260519102158.592165-25-dhowells@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260519102158.592165-1-dhowells@redhat.com>
Add (stub) functions for doing netmem allocations. We want to allocate
memory from the netmem buffering as that does bulk DMA and IOMMU
management.
