Kumar Kartikeya says: ==================== This small series makes some improvements to generic XDP mode and brings it closer to native XDP. Patch 1 splits out generic XDP processing into reusable parts, patch 2 adds pointer friendly wrappers for bitops (not have to cast back and forth the address of local pointer to unsigned long *), patch 3 implements generic cpumap support (details in commit) and patch 4 allows devmap bpf prog execution before generic_xdp_tx is called. Patch 5 just updates a couple of selftests to adapt to changes in behavior (in that specifying devmap/cpumap prog fd in generic mode is now allowed). Changelog: ---------- v5 -> v6 v5: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20210701002759.381983-1-memxor@gmail.com * Put rcpu->prog check before RCU-bh section to avoid do_softirq (Jesper) v4 -> v5 v4: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20210628114746.129669-1-memxor@gmail.com * Add comments and examples for new bitops macros (Alexei) v3 -> v4 v3: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20210622202835.1151230-1-memxor@gmail.com * Add detach now that attach of XDP program succeeds (Toke) * Clean up the test to use new ASSERT macros v2 -> v3 v2: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20210622195527.1110497-1-memxor@gmail.com * list_for_each_entry -> list_for_each_entry_safe (due to deletion of skb) v1 -> v2 v1: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20210620233200.855534-1-memxor@gmail.com * Move __ptr_{set,clear,test}_bit to bitops.h (Toke) Also changed argument order to match the bit op they wrap. * Remove map value size checking functions for cpumap/devmap (Toke) * Rework prog run for skb in cpu_map_kthread_run (Toke) * Set skb->dev to dst->dev after devmap prog has run * Don't set xdp rxq that will be overwritten in cpumap prog run ==================== Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org>
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.
