3627d9702d samples/bpf: Sample application for eBPF load and socket creation split
Introduce a sample program to demonstrate the control and data
plane split. For the control plane part a new program called
xdpsock_ctrl_proc is introduced. For the data plane part, some code
was added to xdpsock_user.c to act as the data plane entity.

Application xdpsock_ctrl_proc works as control entity with sudo
privileges (CAP_SYS_ADMIN and CAP_NET_ADMIN are sufficient) and the
extended xdpsock as data plane entity with CAP_NET_RAW capability
only.

Usage example:

sudo ./samples/bpf/xdpsock_ctrl_proc -i <interface>

sudo ./samples/bpf/xdpsock -i <interface> -q <queue_id>
	-n <interval> -N -l -R

2e5d72c15f samples/bpf: Add XDP_SHARED_UMEM support to xdpsock
Add support for the XDP_SHARED_UMEM mode to the xdpsock sample
application. As libbpf does not have a built in XDP program for this
mode, we use an explicitly loaded XDP program. This also serves as an
example on how to write your own XDP program that can route to an
AF_XDP socket.

248c7f9c0e samples/bpf: convert xdpsock to use libbpf for AF_XDP access
This commit converts the xdpsock sample application to use the AF_XDP
functions present in libbpf. This cuts down the size of it by nearly
300 lines of code.

The default ring sizes plus the batch size has been increased and the
size of the umem area has decreased. This so that the sample application
will provide higher throughput. Note also that the shared umem code
has been removed from the sample as this is not supported by libbpf
at this point in time.

b4b8faa1de samples/bpf: sample application and documentation for AF_XDP sockets
This is a sample application for AF_XDP sockets. The application
supports three different modes of operation: rxdrop, txonly and l2fwd.

To show-case a simple round-robin load-balancing between a set of
sockets in an xskmap, set the RR_LB compile time define option to 1 in
"xdpsock.h".

v2: The entries variable was calculated twice in {umem,xq}_nb_avail.
