Changing API xdp_return_frame() to take struct xdp_frame as argument, seems like a natural choice. But there are some subtle performance details here that needs extra care, which is a deliberate choice. When de-referencing xdp_frame on a remote CPU during DMA-TX completion, result in the cache-line is change to "Shared" state. Later when the page is reused for RX, then this xdp_frame cache-line is written, which change the state to "Modified". This situation already happens (naturally) for, virtio_net, tun and cpumap as the xdp_frame pointer is the queued object. In tun and cpumap, the ptr_ring is used for efficiently transferring cache-lines (with pointers) between CPUs. Thus, the only option is to de-referencing xdp_frame. It is only the ixgbe driver that had an optimization, in which it can avoid doing the de-reference of xdp_frame. The driver already have TX-ring queue, which (in case of remote DMA-TX completion) have to be transferred between CPUs anyhow. In this data area, we stored a struct xdp_mem_info and a data pointer, which allowed us to avoid de-referencing xdp_frame. To compensate for this, a prefetchw is used for telling the cache coherency protocol about our access pattern. My benchmarks show that this prefetchw is enough to compensate the ixgbe driver.

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.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
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.
