Denis Kirjanov says:

====================
xen networking: add XDP support to xen-netfront

The first patch adds a new extra type to enable proper synchronization
between an RX request/response pair.
The second patch implements BFP interface for xen-netfront.
The third patch enables extra space for XDP processing.

v14:
- fixed compilation warnings

v13:
- fixed compilation due to previous rename

v12:
- xen-netback: rename netfront_xdp_headroom to xdp_headroom

v11:
- add the new headroom constant to netif.h
- xenbus_scanf check
- lock a bulk of puckets in xennet_xdp_xmit()

v10:
- add a new xen_netif_extra_info type to enable proper synchronization
 between an RX request/response pair.
- order local variable declarations

v9:
- assign an xdp program before switching to Reconfiguring
- minor cleanups
- address checkpatch issues

v8:
- add PAGE_POOL config dependency
- keep the state of XDP processing in netfront_xdp_enabled
- fixed allocator type in xdp_rxq_info_reg_mem_model()
- minor cleanups in xen-netback

v7:
- use page_pool_dev_alloc_pages() on page allocation
- remove the leftover break statement from netback_changed

v6:
- added the missing SOB line
- fixed subject

v5:
- split netfront/netback changes
- added a sync point between backend/frontend on switching to XDP
- added pagepool API

v4:
- added verbose patch descriprion
- don't expose the XDP headroom offset to the domU guest
- add a modparam to netback to toggle XDP offset
- don't process jumbo frames for now

v3:
- added XDP_TX support (tested with xdping echoserver)
- added XDP_REDIRECT support (tested with modified xdp_redirect_kern)
- moved xdp negotiation to xen-netback

v2:
- avoid data copying while passing to XDP
- tell xen-netback that we need the headroom space

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.
