Currently, architecture of xdpxceiver is designed strictly for conducting veth based tests. Veth pair is created together with a network namespace and one of the veth interfaces is moved to the mentioned netns. Then, separate threads for Tx and Rx are spawned which will utilize described setup. Infrastructure described in the paragraph above can not be used for testing AF_XDP support on physical devices. That testing will be conducted on a single network interface and same queue. Xskxceiver needs to be extended to distinguish between veth tests and physical interface tests. Since same iface/queue id pair will be used by both Tx/Rx threads for physical device testing, Tx thread, which happen to run after the Rx thread, is going to create XSK socket with shared umem flag. In order to track this setting throughout the lifetime of spawned threads, introduce 'shared_umem' boolean variable to struct ifobject and set it to true when xdpxceiver is run against physical device. In such case, UMEM size needs to be doubled, so half of it will be used by Rx thread and other half by Tx thread. For two step based test types, value of XSKMAP element under key 0 has to be updated as there is now another socket for the second step. Also, to avoid race conditions when destroying XSK resources, move this activity to the main thread after spawned Rx and Tx threads have finished its job. This way it is possible to gracefully remove shared umem without introducing synchronization mechanisms. To run xsk selftests suite on physical device, append "-i $IFACE" when invoking test_xsk.sh. For veth based tests, simply skip it. When "-i $IFACE" is in place, under the hood test_xsk.sh will use $IFACE for both interfaces supplied to xdpxceiver, which in turn will interpret that this execution of test suite is for a physical device. Note that currently this makes it possible only to test SKB and DRV mode (in case underlying device has native XDP support). ZC testing support is added in a later patch.

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.
