Cover letter [RFC bpf-next 0/4] add partial rx hw csum offload support for XDP
Enable xdp rx checksum offload support for CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY use-case. Introduce flag field in xdp_buff/xdp_frame in order to save the checksum result from the NIC and have a fast access to it performing XDP_REDIRECT. CHECKSUM_COMPLETE is not supported yet since it will require adding the csum result to the xdp_metadata area.
Moreover flag field will be reused for xdp multi-buff support. This series has been tested generating UDP traffic with pktgen and performing a xdp_redirect from an ixgbe device to a remote CPUMAP entry. PPS results show a negligible penalty respect to the baseline where the UDP checksum has been disabled. More info about the test can be found here [0].
