Magnus Karlsson 7cd6df4f5e selftests/xsk: adjust packet pacing for multi-buffer support
Modify the packet pacing algorithm so that it works with multi-buffer
packets. This algorithm makes sure we do not send too many buffers to
the receiving thread so that packets have to be dropped. The previous
algorithm made the assumption that each packet only consumes one
buffer, but that is not true anymore when multi-buffer support gets
added. Instead, we find out what the largest packet size is in the
packet stream and assume that each packet will consume this many
buffers. This is conservative and overly cautious as there might be
smaller packets in the stream that need fewer buffers per packet. But
it keeps the algorithm simple.

Also simplify it by removing the pthread conditional and just test if
there is enough space in the Rx thread before trying to send one more
batch. Also makes the tests run faster.

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

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
