This patch series introduces dma-buf export support for RDMA/InfiniBand devices, enabling userspace applications to export RDMA PCI-backed memory regions (such as device memory or mlx5 UAR pages) as dma-buf file descriptors.
This allows PCI device memory to be shared with other kernel subsystems (e.g., graphics or media) or between userspace processes, via the standard dma-buf interface, avoiding unnecessary copies and enabling efficient peer-to-peer (P2P) DMA transfers. See [1] for background on dma-buf.

Applied, thanks!
