Eryk reported an issue that I have put under Closes: tag, related to
umem addrs being prematurely produced onto pool's completion queue.
Let us make the skb's destructor responsible for producing all addrs
that given skb used.
Commit from fixes tag introduced the buggy behavior, it was not broken
from day 1, but rather when xsk multi-buffer got introduced.
In order to mitigate performance impact as much as possible, mimic the
linear and frag parts within skb by storing the first address from XSK
descriptor at sk_buff::destructor_arg. For fragments, store them at ::cb
via list. The nodes that will go onto list will be allocated via
kmem_cache. xsk_destruct_skb() will consume address stored at
::destructor_arg and optionally go through list from ::cb, if count of
descriptors associated with this particular skb is bigger than 1.
Previous approach where whole array for storing UMEM addresses from XSK
descriptors was pre-allocated during first fragment processing yielded
too big performance regression for 64b traffic. In current approach
impact is much reduced on my tests and for jumbo frames I observed
traffic being slower by at most 9%.
Magnus suggested to have this way of processing special cased for
XDP_SHARED_UMEM, so we would identify this during bind and set different
hooks for 'backpressure mechanism' on CQ and for skb destructor, but
given that results looked promising on my side I decided to have a
single data path for XSK generic Tx. I suppose other auxiliary stuff
would have to land as well in order to make it work.

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.
