Hi Michael, Do you think it's appropriate to push the first two patches of this patch set to linux 6.6? Thanks.I generally treat patchsets as a whole unless someone asks me to do otherwise. Why do you want this?As we discussed, the patch set supporting AF_XDP will be push to net-next. But the two patchs belong to the vhost. So, if you think that is appropriate, I will post a new patchset(include the two patchs without virtio-net + AF_XDP) to vhost. I wish that can be merged to 6.6.Oh wait 6.6? Too late really, merge window has been closed for weeks.I mean as a fix. So I ask you do you think it is appropriate?Sure if there's a bugfix please post is separately - what issues do these two patches fix? this is the part I'm missing. Especially patch 2 which just adds a new API.
No bugfix. That is the requirement of the supporting AF_XDP. So please ignore my question. Sorry ^_^. Thanks.

Then when the 6.7 net-next merge window is open, I can push this patch set to 6.7. The v1 version use the virtqueue_dma_map_single_attrs to replace virtqueue_dma_map_page_attrs. But I think we should use virtqueue_dma_map_page_attrs. Thanks.Get a complete working patchset that causes no regressions posted first please then we will discuss merge strategy. I would maybe just put everything in one file for now, easier to merge, refactor later when it's all upstream. But up to you.OK. I will get a working patchset firstly. Thanks.quoted
