Linux kernel source tree
aecd67b607
This patch only introduce the core data structures and API functions. All XDP enabled drivers must use the API before this info can used. There is a need for XDP to know more about the RX-queue a given XDP frames have arrived on. For both the XDP bpf-prog and kernel side. Instead of extending xdp_buff each time new info is needed, the patch creates a separate read-mostly struct xdp_rxq_info, that contains this info. We stress this data/cache-line is for read-only info. This is NOT for dynamic per packet info, use the data_meta for such use-cases. The performance advantage is this info can be setup at RX-ring init time, instead of updating N-members in xdp_buff. A possible (driver level) micro optimization is that xdp_buff->rxq assignment could be done once per XDP/NAPI loop. The extra pointer deref only happens for program needing access to this info (thus, no slowdown to existing use-cases).

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.
