When the umem is shared, the DMA mapping is also shared between the xsk
pools, therefore it should stay valid as long as at least 1 user remains.
However, the pool also keeps the copies of DMA-related information that are
initialized in the same way in xp_init_dma_info(), but cleared by
xp_dma_unmap() only for the last remaining pool, this causes the problems
below.
The first one is that the commit adbf5a42341f ("ice: remove af_xdp_zc_qps
bitmap") relies on pool->dev to determine the presence of a ZC pool on a
given queue, avoiding internal bookkeeping. This works perfectly fine if
the UMEM is not shared, but reliably fails otherwise as stated in the
linked report.
The second one is pool->dma_pages which is dynamically allocated and
only freed in xp_dma_unmap(), this leads to a small memory leak. kmemleak
does not catch it, but by printing the allocation results after terminating
the userspace program it is possible to see that all addresses except the
one belonging to the last detached pool are still accessible through the
kmemleak dump functionality.
Always clear the DMA mapping information from the pool and free
pool->dma_pages when unmapping the pool, so that the only difference
between results of the last remaining user's call and the ones before would
be the destruction of the DMA mapping.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
