i40e: support XDP multi-buffer
Tirthendu Sarkar says:
This patchset adds multi-buffer support for XDP. Tx side already has
support for multi-buffer. This patchset focuses on Rx side. The last
patch contains actual multi-buffer changes while the previous ones are
preparatory patches.
On receiving the first buffer of a packet, xdp_buff is built and its
subsequent buffers are added to it as frags. While 'next_to_clean' keeps
pointing to the first descriptor, the newly introduced 'next_to_process'
keeps track of every descriptor for the packet.
On receiving EOP buffer the XDP program is called and appropriate action
is taken (building skb for XDP_PASS, reusing page for XDP_DROP, adjusting
page offsets for XDP_{REDIRECT,TX}).
The patchset also streamlines page offset adjustments for buffer reuse
to make it easier to post process the rx_buffers after running XDP prog.
With this patchset there does not seem to be any performance degradation
for XDP_PASS and some improvement (~1% for XDP_TX, ~5% for XDP_DROP) when
measured using xdp_rxq_info program from samples/bpf/ for 64B packets.

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.
