here we go, figured it out. sorry about that.

This patch adds PROTO_CMSG_DATA_ONLY to inet_dgram_ops and inet6_dgram_ops so that UDP_SEGMENT (GSO) and UDP_GRO can be used through io_uring.

GSO and GRO are vital to bring QUIC servers on par with TCP throughputs, and together offer a higher
throughput gain than io_uring alone (rate of data transit
considering), thus io_uring is presently the lesser performance choice.

RE http://vger.kernel.org/lpc_net2018_talks/willemdebruijn-lpc2018-udpgso-paper-DRAFT-1.pdf,
GSO is about +~63% and GRO +~82%.

this patch closes that loophole.

The v3 patch doesn't have "Signed-off-by". You can see all the checks
on patchwork:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/patch/[email protected]/

For patches to netdev, please include the target. Here it should be net-next:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/networking/netdev-FAQ.txt
git format-patch --subject-prefix='PATCH net-next v4' ...

Also, since this patch affects udp, it's preferred to include "udp: "
in your commit's subject line.  In other words, the v4 of this patch
should look like the following:

[PATCH net-next v2] udp: allow UDP cmsghdrs through io_uring

Thank you
