2018-05-04xsk: add support for bind for RxMagnus Karlsson1-0/+1
Here, the bind syscall is added. Binding an AF_XDP socket, means associating the socket to an umem, a netdev and a queue index. This can be done in two ways. The first way, creating a "socket from scratch". Create the umem using the XDP_UMEM_REG setsockopt and an associated fill queue with XDP_UMEM_FILL_QUEUE. Create the Rx queue using the XDP_RX_QUEUE setsockopt. Call bind passing ifindex and queue index ("channel" in ethtool speak). The second way to bind a socket, is simply skipping the umem/netdev/queue index, and passing another already setup AF_XDP socket. The new socket will then have the same umem/netdev/queue index as the parent so it will share the same umem. You must also set the flags field in the socket address to XDP_SHARED_UMEM. v2: Use PTR_ERR instead of passing error variable explicitly.

2018-05-04xsk: add Rx queue setup and mmap supportBjörn Töpel1-1/+1
Another setsockopt (XDP_RX_QUEUE) is added to let the process allocate a queue, where the kernel can pass completed Rx frames from the kernel to user process. The mmapping of the queue is done using the XDP_PGOFF_RX_QUEUE offset. Signed-off-by: Björn Töpel <bjorn.topel@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org>
2018-05-04xsk: add umem fill queue support and mmapMagnus Karlsson1-0/+38
Here, we add another setsockopt for registered user memory (umem) called XDP_UMEM_FILL_QUEUE. Using this socket option, the process can ask the kernel to allocate a queue (ring buffer) and also mmap it (XDP_UMEM_PGOFF_FILL_QUEUE) into the process. The queue is used to explicitly pass ownership of umem frames from the user process to the kernel. These frames will in a later patch be filled in with Rx packet data by the kernel. v2: Fixed potential crash in xsk_mmap.
