samples/bpf: xdpsock: Add sched policy and priority support
By default, TX schedule policy is SCHED_OTHER (round-robin time-sharing). To improve TX cyclic scheduling, we add SCHED_FIFO policy and its priority by using -W FIFO or --policy=FIFO and -U <PRIO> or --schpri=<PRIO>. A) From xdpsock --app-stats, for SCHED_OTHER policy: $ xdpsock -i eth0 -t -N -z -T 1000 -b 16 -C 100000 -a period min ave max cycle Cyclic TX 1000000 53507 75334 712642 6250 B) For SCHED_FIFO policy and schpri=50: $ xdpsock -i eth0 -t -N -z -T 1000 -b 16 -C 100000 -a -W FIFO -U 50 period min ave max cycle Cyclic TX 1000000 3699 24859 54397 6250 Signed-off-by: Ong Boon Leong <boon.leong.ong@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20211230035447.523177-6-boon.leong.ong@intel.com
