+# AF_XDP selftests based on veth
+#
+# End-to-end AF_XDP over Veth test
+#
+# Topology:
+# ---------
+#      -----------           -----------
+#      |  xskX   | --------- |  xskY   |
+#      -----------     |     -----------

+# AF_XDP is an address family optimized for high performance packet processing,
+# it is XDP’s user-space interface.
+#
+# An AF_XDP socket is linked to a single UMEM which is a region of virtual
+# contiguous memory, divided into equal-sized frames.
+#
+# Refer to AF_XDP Kernel Documentation for detailed information:
+# https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/networking/af_xdp.html
+#
+# Prerequisites setup by script:
+#
+#   Set up veth interfaces as per the topology shown ^^:
+#   * setup two veth interfaces and one namespace
+#   ** veth<xxxx> in root namespace
+#   ** veth<yyyy> in af_xdp<xxxx> namespace
+#   ** namespace af_xdp<xxxx>
+#   * create a spec file veth.spec that includes this run-time configuration
+#   *** xxxx and yyyy are randomly generated 4 digit numbers used to avoid
+#       conflict with any existing interface
+#   * tests the veth and xsk layers of the topology
+#
+# Kernel configuration:
+# ---------------------
+# See "config" file for recommended kernel config options.
+#
+# Turn on XDP sockets and veth support when compiling i.e.
+# 	Networking support -->
+# 		Networking options -->
+# 			[ * ] XDP sockets
+#
+# Executing Tests:
+# ----------------
+# Must run with CAP_NET_ADMIN capability.
+#
+# Run (full color-coded output):
+#   sudo ./test_xsk.sh -c
+#
+# If running from kselftests:
+#   sudo make colorconsole=1 run_tests
