Multi-buffer XDP stores information about frags in skb_shared_info that
sits at the tailroom of a packet. The storage space is reserved via
xdp_data_hard_end():
((xdp)->data_hard_start + (xdp)->frame_sz - \
SKB_DATA_ALIGN(sizeof(struct skb_shared_info)))
and then we refer to it via macro below:
static inline struct skb_shared_info *
xdp_get_shared_info_from_buff(const struct xdp_buff *xdp)
{
return (struct skb_shared_info *)xdp_data_hard_end(xdp);
}
Currently we do not respect this tailroom space in multi-buffer AF_XDP
ZC scenario. To address this, introduce xsk_pool_get_tailroom() and use
it within xsk_pool_get_rx_frame_size() which is used in ZC drivers to
configure length of HW Rx buffer.
xsk_pool_get_tailroom() is only reserving necessary space when pool is
zc and underlying netdev supports zc multi-buffer. Rely on pool->dev
state when configuring tailroom. xsk_pool_get_rx_frame_size() inside
ndo_bpf is usually called when bringing up queues and before xsk's dma
mappings have been configured, which makes it valid to rely on
pool->dev.
Typically drivers on Rx Hw buffers side work on 128 byte alignment so
let us align the value returned by xsk_pool_get_rx_frame_size() in order
to avoid addressing this on driver's side. This addresses the fact that
idpf uses mentioned function *before* pool->dev being set so we were at
risk that after subtracting tailroom we would not provide 128-byte
aligned value to HW.
