tap: XDP support
This patch tries to implement XDP for tun. The implementation was split into two parts: - fast path: small and no gso packet. We try to do XDP at page level before build_skb(). For XDP_TX, since creating/destroying queues were completely under control of userspace, it was implemented through generic XDP helper after skb has been built. This could be optimized in the future. - slow path: big or gso packet. We try to do it after skb was created through generic XDP helpers. Test were done through pktgen with small packets. xdp1 test shows ~41.1% improvement: Before: ~1.7Mpps After: ~2.3Mpps xdp_redirect to ixgbe shows ~60% improvement: Before: ~0.8Mpps After: ~1.38Mpps Suggested-by: Michael S.
