net: fec: improve XDP_TX performance
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.
