John Fastabend says:

====================
XDP adjust head support for virtio

This series adds adjust head support for virtio. The following is my
test setup. I use qemu + virtio as follows,

./x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 \
  -hda /var/lib/libvirt/images/Fedora-test0.img \
  -m 4096  -enable-kvm -smp 2 -netdev tap,id=hn0,queues=4,vhost=on \
  -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=hn0,mq=on,guest_tso4=off,guest_tso6=off,guest_ecn=off,guest_ufo=off,vectors=9

In order to use XDP with virtio until LRO is supported TSO must be
turned off in the host. The important fields in the above command line
are the following,

  guest_tso4=off,guest_tso6=off,guest_ecn=off,guest_ufo=off

Also note it is possible to conusme more queues than can be supported
because when XDP is enabled for retransmit XDP attempts to use a queue
per cpu. My standard queue count is 'queues=4'.

After loading the VM I run the relevant XDP test programs in,

  ./sammples/bpf

For this series I tested xdp1, xdp2, and xdp_tx_iptunnel. I usually test
with iperf (-d option to get bidirectional traffic), ping, and pktgen.
I also have a modified xdp1 that returns XDP_PASS on any packet to ensure
the normal traffic path to the stack continues to work with XDP loaded.

It would be great to automate this soon. At the moment I do it by hand
which is starting to get tedious.

v2: original series dropped trace points after merge.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
