The XDP_TX feature is not supported before, and all the frames which are deemed to do XDP_TX action actually do the XDP_DROP action. So this patch adds the XDP_TX support to FEC driver. I tested the performance of XDP_TX in XDP_DRV mode and XDP_SKB mode respectively on i.MX8MP-EVK platform, and as suggested by Jesper, I also tested the performance of XDP_REDIRECT on the same platform. And the test steps and results are as follows. XDP_TX test: Step 1: One board is used as generator and connects to switch,and the FEC port of DUT also connects to the switch. Both boards with flow control off. Then the generator runs the pktgen_sample03_burst_single_flow.sh script to generate and send burst traffic to DUT. Note that the size of packet was set to 64 bytes and the procotol of packet was UDP in my test scenario. In addition, the SMAC of the packet need to be different from the MAC of the generator, because the xdp2 program will swap the DMAC and SMAC of the packet and send it back to the generator. If the SMAC of the generated packet is the MAC of the generator, the generator will receive the returned traffic which increase the CPU loading and significantly degrade the transmit speed of the generator, and finally it affects the test of XDP_TX performance. Step 2: The DUT runs the xdp2 program to transmit received UDP packets back out on the same port where they were received. root@imx8mpevk:~# ./xdp2 eth0 proto 17: 353918 pkt/s proto 17: 352923 pkt/s proto 17: 353900 pkt/s proto 17: 352672 pkt/s proto 17: 353912 pkt/s proto 17: 354219 pkt/s root@imx8mpevk:~# ./xdp2 -S eth0 proto 17: 160604 pkt/s proto 17: 160708 pkt/s proto 17: 160564 pkt/s proto 17: 160684 pkt/s proto 17: 160640 pkt/s proto 17: 160720 pkt/s The above results show that the XDP_TX performance of XDP_DRV mode is much better than XDP_SKB mode, more than twice that of XDP_SKB mode, which is in line with our expectation. XDP_REDIRECT test: Step1: Both the generator and the FEC port of the DUT connet to the switch port. All the ports with flow control off, then the generator runs the pktgen script to generate and send burst traffic to DUT. Note that the size of packet was set to 64 bytes and the procotol of packet was UDP in my test scenario. Step2: The DUT runs the xdp_redirect program to redirect the traffic from the FEC port to the FEC port itself. root@imx8mpevk:~# ./xdp_redirect eth0 eth0 Redirecting from eth0 (ifindex 2; driver fec) to eth0 (ifindex 2; driver fec) Summary 232,302 rx/s 0 err,drop/s 232,344 xmit/s Summary 234,579 rx/s 0 err,drop/s 234,577 xmit/s Summary 235,548 rx/s 0 err,drop/s 235,549 xmit/s Summary 234,704 rx/s 0 err,drop/s 234,703 xmit/s Summary 235,504 rx/s 0 err,drop/s 235,504 xmit/s Summary 235,223 rx/s 0 err,drop/s 235,224 xmit/s Summary 234,509 rx/s 0 err,drop/s 234,507 xmit/s Summary 235,481 rx/s 0 err,drop/s 235,482 xmit/s Summary 234,684 rx/s 0 err,drop/s 234,683 xmit/s Summary 235,520 rx/s 0 err,drop/s 235,520 xmit/s Summary 235,461 rx/s 0 err,drop/s 235,461 xmit/s Summary 234,627 rx/s 0 err,drop/s 234,627 xmit/s Summary 235,611 rx/s 0 err,drop/s 235,611 xmit/s Packets received : 3,053,753 Average packets/s : 234,904 Packets transmitted : 3,053,792 Average transmit/s : 234,907 Compared the performance of XDP_TX with XDP_REDIRECT, XDP_TX is also much better than XDP_REDIRECT. It's also in line with our expectation.

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.
