As suggested by Jesper and Alexander, we can avoid converting xdp_buff to xdp_frame in case of XDP_TX to save a bunch of CPU cycles, so that we can further improve the XDP_TX performance. Before this patch on i.MX8MP-EVK board, the performance shows as follows. 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 After applying this patch, the performance is improved. root@imx8mpevk:~# ./xdp2 eth0 proto 17: 369261 pkt/s proto 17: 369267 pkt/s proto 17: 369206 pkt/s proto 17: 369214 pkt/s proto 17: 369126 pkt/s proto 17: 369272 pkt/s Signed-off-by: Wei Fang <wei.fang@nxp.com> Suggested-by: Alexander Lobakin <aleksander.lobakin@intel.com> Suggested-by: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <hawk@kernel.org> Reviewed-by: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <hawk@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

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.
