Each driver is responsible for syncing buffers written by HW for CPU
before accessing them. Almost each PP-enabled driver uses the same
pattern, which could be shorthanded into a static inline to make driver
code a little bit more compact.
Introduce a couple such functions. The first one takes the actual size
of the data written by HW and is the main one to be used on Rx. The
second does the same, but only if the PP performs DMA synchronizations
at all. The last one picks max_len from the PP params and is designed
for more extreme cases when the size is unknown, but the buffer still
needs to be synced.
Also constify pointer arguments of page_pool_get_dma_dir() and
page_pool_get_dma_addr() to give a bit more room for optimization,
as both of them are read-only.

Very neat.

highly nit picky - but isn't dma-mapping.h pretty heavy?
And we include page_pool.h in skbuff.h. Not that it matters
today, but maybe one day we'll succeed putting skbuff.h
on a diet -- so perhaps it's better to put "inline helpers
with non-trivial dependencies" into a new header?

Likely a dumb question but why does this exist?
Is there a case where the "maybe" version is not safe?

I got similar concerns here.  Syncing for the cpu is currently a
responsibility for the driver.  The reason for having an automated DMA sync
is that we know when we allocate buffers for the NIC to consume so we can
safely sync them accordingly.  I am fine having a page pool version for the
cpu sync, but do we really have to check the pp flags for that?  IOW if you
are at the point that you need to sync a buffer for the cpu *someone*
already mapped it for you.  Regardsless of who mapped it the sync is
identical

Maybe we could rather stop including page_pool.h into skbuff.h? It's
used there only for  1 external, which could be declared directly in
skbuff.h. When Matteo was developing PP recycling, he was storing
mem_info in skb as well, but then it was optimized and we don't do that
anymore.
It annoys sometimes to see the whole kernel rebuilt each time I edit
pag_pool.h :D In fact, only PP-enabled drivers and core code need it.

If the driver doesn't set DMA_SYNC_DEV flag, then the "maybe" version
will never do anything. But we may want to use these helpers in such
drivers too?

The flag in the "maybe" version is the continuation of the shortcut from
6/11. If the flag is not set, but you asked PP to do syncs, that means
it enabled the shortcut to not go through function call ladders for
nothing. The ladder is basically the same for sync-for-CPU as the one
described in 6/11 for sync-for-dev.
I could place that in the driver, but I feel like it's better to have
that one level up to reduce boilerplating.

Or maybe we can do both? I think that separating types, defines and
simple wrappers from helpers should be considered good code hygiene.

Oh, I see, the polarity of the flag is awkward. Hm.
Maybe just rename things, drop the "maybe_" and prefix the non-checking
version with __ ? We expect drivers to call the version which check the
flag mostly (AFAIU), so it should have the most obvious name.
Plus perhaps a sentence in the kdoc explaining why __ exists would be
good, if it wasn't obvious to me it may not be obvious to others..

I'll definitely take a look, I also like the idea of minimalistic and
lightweight headers.

Ah, +, good point.

What I've been doing lately is split like this:

include/net/something.h           (simply includes all other headers)
include/net/something/types.h     (structs, defines, enums)
include/net/something/functions.h (inlines and function declarations)

If that's reasonable -- we should put the helpers under

include/net/page_pool/functions.h ?

Hmm, all files that need something from page_pool.h usually need both
types and functions. Not sure we'll benefit anything here. OTOH leaving
those sync-for-cpu inlines alone allows to avoid including dma-mapping.h
and currently only IAVF needs them. So my idea is:

- you need smth from PP, but not sync-for-cpu -- more lightweight
  page_pool.h is for you;
- you need sync-for-cpu (or maybe something else with heavy deps in the
  future) -- just include page_pool_drv.h.

I tried moving something else, but couldn't find anything that would
give any win. <linux/mm.h> and <linux/ptr_ring.h> are needed to define
`struct page_pool`, i.e. even being structured like in your example they
would've gone into pp/types.h =\
`struct ptr_ring` itself doesn't require any MM-related definitions, so
would we split it into ptr_ring/{types,functions}.h, we could probably
avoid a couple includes :D

Thanks,
Olek

Ack, in the scheme above most places (source files) would include
something.h, the something/types.h is just for other headers.
something/functions.h is basically never included directly.

The idea makes sense in isolation, but I'm trying to figure out
a convention which would not require case-by-case discussions.

Ack, not saying that we need to split now, it's just about the naming
(everyone's favorite topic).

I think that it's a touch weird to name the header _drv.h and then
include it in the core in multiple places (*cough* xdp_sock_drv.h). 
Also If someone needs to add another "heavy" static line for use by 
the core they will try to put it in page_pool.h rather than _drv.h...

I'd rather split the includes by the basic language-level contents,
first, then by the intended consumer, only if necessary. Language 
level sorting require less thinking :)

But none of this is important, if you don't wanna to do it, just keep 
the new helpers in page_pool.h (let's not do another _drv.h).

Hahaha, I also thought of it :>

Ack, will just put there. It doesn't get included by the whole kernel
via skbuff.h anymore (in v2), so new inlines won't hurt.

Haha! Point taken. Will clear it up.
