net, veth: Alloc skb in bulk for ndo_xdp_xmit
Split ndo_xdp_xmit and ndo_start_xmit use cases in veth_xdp_rcv routine in order to alloc skbs in bulk for XDP_PASS verdict. Introduce xdp_alloc_skb_bulk utility routine to alloc skb bulk list. The proposed approach has been tested in the following scenario: eth (ixgbe) --> XDP_REDIRECT --> veth0 --> (remote-ns) veth1 --> XDP_PASS XDP_REDIRECT: xdp_redirect_map bpf sample XDP_PASS: xdp_rxq_info bpf sample traffic generator: pkt_gen sending udp traffic on a remote device bpf-next master: ~3.64Mpps bpf-next + skb bulking allocation: ~3.79Mpps Signed-off-by: Lorenzo Bianconi <lorenzo@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net> Reviewed-by: Toshiaki Makita <toshiaki.makita1@gmail.com> Acked-by: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <brouer@redhat.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/a14a30d3c06fff24e13f836c733d80efc0bd6eb5.1611957532.git.lorenzo@kernel.org
