====================
virtio-net: support multi buffer xdp

Changes since PATCH v4:
- Make netdev_warn() in [PATCH 2/10] independent from [PATCH 3/10].

Changes since PATCH v3:
- Separate fix patch [2/10] for MTU calculation of single buffer xdp.
  Note that this patch needs to be backported to the stable branch.

Changes since PATCH v2:
- Even if single buffer xdp has a hole mechanism, there will be no
  problem (limiting mtu and turning off GUEST GSO), so there is no
  need to backport "[PATCH 1/9]";
- Modify calculation of MTU for single buffer xdp in virtnet_xdp_set();
- Make truesize in mergeable mode return to literal meaning;
- Add some comments for legibility;

Changes since RFC:
- Using headroom instead of vi->xdp_enabled to avoid re-reading
  in add_recvbuf_mergeable();
- Disable GRO_HW and keep linearization for single buffer xdp;
- Renamed to virtnet_build_xdp_buff_mrg();
- pr_debug() to netdev_dbg();
- Adjusted the order of the patch series.

Currently, virtio net only supports xdp for single-buffer packets
or linearized multi-buffer packets. This patchset supports xdp for
multi-buffer packets, then larger MTU can be used if xdp sets the
xdp.frags. This does not affect single buffer handling.

In order to build multi-buffer xdp neatly, we integrated the code
into virtnet_build_xdp_buff_mrg() for xdp. The first buffer is used
for prepared xdp buff, and the rest of the buffers are added to
its skb_shared_info structure. This structure can also be
conveniently converted during XDP_PASS to get the corresponding skb.

Since virtio net uses comp pages, and bpf_xdp_frags_increase_tail()
is based on the assumption of the page pool,
(rxq->frag_size - skb_frag_size(frag) - skb_frag_off(frag))
is negative in most cases. So we didn't set xdp_rxq->frag_size in
virtnet_open() to disable the tail increase.

README

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.
