What about storing ops and priv void ptr in struct netdev_rx_queue instead? Then we can both use it.
Yes, this is dmabuf specific, I was thinking you'd define your own member of netdev_rx_queue, and then add something like this to page_pool_init:
+ if (pool->p.queue) + io_uring_metadata = READ_ONCE(pool->p.queue->io_uring_metadata); + + /* We don't support rx-queues that are configured for both io_uring & dmabuf binding */ + BUG_ON(io_uring_metadata && binding); + + if (io_uring_metadata) { + pool->mp_ops = &io_uring_ops; + pool->mp_priv = io_uring_metadata; + }
I.e., we share the pool->mp_ops and the pool->mp_priv but we don't really need to share the same netdev_rx_queue member. For me it's a dma-buf specific data structure (netdev_dmabuf_binding) and for you it's something else.
page_pool_init() probably needs to validate that the queue is configured for dma-buf or io_uring but not both. If it's configured for both then the user is doing something funky we shouldn't support.
Perhaps I can make the intention clearer by renaming 'binding' to something more specific to dma-buf like queue->dmabuf_binding, to make it clear that this is the dma-buf binding and not some other binding like io_uring?
