In current ping-pong design, xdp_hw_metadata will wait until the packet transmission completely done, then only start to receive the next packet. The current sleep interval is 10ms, which is unnecessary large. Typically, a NIC does not need such a long time to transmit a packet. Furthermore, during this 10ms sleep time, the app is unable to receive incoming packets. Therefore, this commit reduce sleep interval to 10us, so that xdp_hw_metadata is able to support periodic packets with shorter interval. 10us * 500 = 5ms should be enough for packet transmission and status retrieval.

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.
