Linux kernel source tree
Instead of having their own NAPIs, XDP TX completion queues get
polled within the corresponding RX NAPI.
This prevents any possible race on TX ring prod/cons indices,
between the context that issues the transmits (RX NAPI) and the
context that handles the completions (was previously done in
a separate NAPI).
This also improves performance, as it decreases the number
of NAPIs running on a CPU, saving the overhead of syncing
and switching between the contexts.
Performance tests:
Tested on ConnectX3Pro, Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2680 v3 @ 2.50GHz
Single queue no-RSS optimization ON.
XDP_TX packet rate:
-------------------------------------
| Before | After | Gain |
IPv4 | 12.0 Mpps | 13.8 Mpps | 15% |
IPv6 | 12.0 Mpps | 13.8 Mpps | 15% |

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
