I'll have time to think about it (maybe moving the skb managed flag setup inside?), and will anyway need to send some omitted patches then. I was also entertaining the idea of having a smaller ubuf_info to fit it into io_kiocb, which is tight on space. struct ubuf_info { void *callback; refcount_t refcnt; u32 flags; }; struct ubuf_info_msgzerocopy { struct ubuf_info ubuf; /* others fields */ }; 48 bytes would be taking too much, but 16 looks nice. It might make sense to move the callback into struct msghdr, I don't know. -- Pavel Begunkov
