[ Upstream commit4398888268] In some scenarios using Emulated-ISM device, sndbuf can share the same physical memory region with peer DMB to avoid data copy from one side to the other. In such case the sndbuf is only a descriptor that describes the shared memory and does not actually occupy memory, it's more like a ghost buffer. +----------+ +----------+ | socket A | | socket B | +----------+ +----------+ | | +--------+ +--------+ | sndbuf | | DMB | | desc | | desc | +--------+ +--------+ | | | +----v-----+ +--------------------------> memory | +----------+ So here introduces three new SMC-D device operations to check if this feature is supported by device, and to {attach|detach} ghost sndbuf to peer DMB. For now only loopback-ism supports this.
