====================
mlx5e-updates-2018-07-26 (XDP redirect)
This series from Tariq adds the support for device-out XDP redirect.
Start with a simple RX and XDP cleanups:
- Replace call to MPWQE free with dealloc in interface down flow
- Do not recycle RX pages in interface down flow
- Gather all XDP pre-requisite checks in a single function
- Restrict the combination of large MTU and XDP
Since now XDP logic is going to be called from TX side as well,
generic XDP TX logic is not RX only anymore, for that Tariq creates
a new xdp.c file and moves XDP related code into it, and generalizes
the code to support XDP TX for XDP redirect, such as the xdp tx sq
structures and xdp counters.
XDP redirect support:
Add implementation for the ndo_xdp_xmit callback.
Dedicate a new set of XDP-SQ instances to satisfy the XDP_REDIRECT
requests. These instances are totally separated from the existing
XDP-SQ objects that satisfy local XDP_TX actions.
Performance tests:
xdp_redirect_map from ConnectX-5 to ConnectX-5.
