[PATCH net-next v8 3/9] net: devmem: TCP tx netlink api

From: Mina Almasry
Date: Tue Apr 15 2025 - 18:49:09 EST


From: Stanislav Fomichev <sdf@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Add bind-tx netlink call to attach dmabuf for TX; queue is not
required, only ifindex and dmabuf fd for attachment.

v3:
- Fix ynl-regen.sh error (Simon).
