Subject: [PATCH review-only 4/4] io_uring/zcrx: implement device-less mode for zcrx
Date: Tue, 17 Feb 2026 10:58:55 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4ae848e20e008a2496c4dd2710c50b15035a92d0.1771325198.git.asml.silence@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1771325198.git.asml.silence@gmail.com>

Allow creating a zcrx instance without attaching it to a net device.
All data will be copied through the fallback path. The user is also
expected to use ZCRX_CTRL_FLUSH_RQ to handle overflows as it normally
should even with a netdev, but it becomes even more relevant as there
will likely be no one to automatically pick up buffers.

Apart from that, it follows the zcrx uapi for the I/O path, and is
useful for testing, experimentation, and potentially for the copy
recieve path in the future if improved.
