XDP and XDP socket require extra SQ/RQ/CQs. Most of these resources are dynamically created: no XDP program loaded, no resources are created. One exception is the SQ/CQ created for XDP_REDRIECT, used for other netdev to forward packet to mlx5 for transmit. The patch disables creation of SQ and CQ used for egress XDP_REDIRECT, by checking whether ndo_xdp_xmit is set or not. For netdev without XDP support such as non-uplink representor, this saves around 0.35MB of memory, per representor netdevice per channel.

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 reStructuredText 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.
