From 1cad078842396f0047a796694b6130fc096d97e2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Magnus Karlsson Date: Thu, 21 Feb 2019 10:21:26 +0100 Subject: libbpf: add support for using AF_XDP sockets MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit This commit adds AF_XDP support to libbpf. The main reason for this is to facilitate writing applications that use AF_XDP by offering higher-level APIs that hide many of the details of the AF_XDP uapi. This is in the same vein as libbpf facilitates XDP adoption by offering easy-to-use higher level interfaces of XDP functionality. Hopefully this will facilitate adoption of AF_XDP, make applications using it simpler and smaller, and finally also make it possible for applications to benefit from optimizations in the AF_XDP user space access code. Previously, people just copied and pasted the code from the sample application into their application, which is not desirable. The interface is composed of two parts: * Low-level access interface to the four rings and the packet * High-level control plane interface for creating and setting up umems and af_xdp sockets as well as a simple XDP program.
