Subject: [PATCH net-next 1/3] selftests: drv-net: iou-zcrx: wait for memory provider cleanup

From: Jakub Kicinski <[email-masked]>
Date: Fri, 27 Feb 2026 09:13:03 -0800

io_uring defers zcrx context teardown to the iou_exit workqueue.

  # ps aux | grep iou
  ...    07:58   0:00 [kworker/u19:0-iou_exit]
  ... 07:58   0:00 [kworker/u18:2-iou_exit]

When the test's receiver process exits, bkg() returns but the memory
provider may still be attached to the rx queue. The subsequent defer()
that restores tcp-data-split then fails:

  # Exception while handling defer / cleanup (callback 3 of 3)!
  # Defer Exception| net.ynl.pyynl.lib.ynl.NlError:
      Netlink error: can't disable tcp-data-split while device has
                     memory provider enabled: Invalid argument
  not ok 1 iou-zcrx.test_zcrx.single

Add a helper that polls netdev queue-get until no rx queue reports
the io-uring memory provider attribute. Register it as a defer()
just before tcp-data-split is restored as a "barrier".
