Yes, true, but this is not really an issue with netiovs per se, it's a
quirk with the page_pool in general. If a non-devmem page_pool is
destroyed while there are pages waiting in the receive queues to be
recvmsg'd, the behavior you described happens anyway AFAIU.

Jakub did some work to improve this. IIRC he disabled the regular
warning and he reparents the orphan page_pools so they appear in the
stats of his netlink API.

Since this is behavior already applying to pages, I did not seek to
improve it as I add devmem support, I just retain it. We could improve
it in a separate patchset, but I do not see this behavior as a
critical issue really, especially since the alarming pr_warn has been
removed.

To be honest this optimization is very necessary from my POV. We ran
into real production problems due to the excessive locking when we use
regular xa_alloc(), and Eric implemented this optimization to resolve
that. I simply squashed the optimization for this upstream series.

If absolutely necessary I can refactor it into a separate patch or
carry the optimization locally, but this seems like a problem everyone
looking to use devmem TCP will re-discover, so probably worth just
having here?

Seems so, AFAICT. Let me try to apply this and see if it trips up any tests.

I think it is. The caller of tcp_recvmsg_dmabuf() expects all of
remaining_len to be used up, otherwise it messes up with the math in
the caller. __skb_datagram_iter(), which is the equivalent to this one
for pages, regards having left over data as a fault and also returns
-EFAULT, AFAICT.

I think we can get here if we run out of skbs with data, no?

Will do.
