Björn Töpel says:

====================
This series aims to simplify the XDP maps and
xdp_do_redirect_map()/xdp_do_flush_map(), and to crank out some more
performance from XDP_REDIRECT scenarios.

The first part of the series simplifies all XDP_REDIRECT capable maps,
so that __XXX_flush_map() does not require the map parameter, by
moving the flush list from the map to global scope.

This results in that the map_to_flush member can be removed from
struct bpf_redirect_info, and its corresponding logic.

Simpler code, and more performance due to that checks/code per-packet
is moved to flush.

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.
