====================
Yeah, I still remember that "Who needs cpumap nowadays" (c), but anyway.
__xdp_build_skb_from_frame() missed the moment when the networking stack
became able to recycle skb pages backed by a page_pool. This was making
e.g. cpumap redirect even less effective than simple %XDP_PASS. veth was
also affected in some scenarios.
A lot of drivers use skb_mark_for_recycle() already, it's been almost
two years and seems like there are no issues in using it in the generic
code too. {__,}xdp_release_frame() can be then removed as it losts its
last user.
Page Pool becomes then zero-alloc (or almost) in the abovementioned
cases, too. Other memory type models (who needs them at this point)
have no changes.
Some numbers on 1 Xeon Platinum core bombed with 27 Mpps of 64-byte
IPv6 UDP, iavf w/XDP[0] (CONFIG_PAGE_POOL_STATS is enabled):
Plain %XDP_PASS on baseline, Page Pool driver:
src cpu Rx drops dst cpu Rx
2.1 Mpps N/A 2.1 Mpps
cpumap redirect (cross-core, w/o leaving its NUMA node) on baseline:
6.8 Mpps 5.0 Mpps 1.8 Mpps
cpumap redirect with skb PP recycling:
7.9 Mpps 5.7 Mpps 2.2 Mpps
+22% (from cpumap redir on baseline)

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 Restructured Text 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.
