Merge branch 'xsk-support-redirect-to-any-socket-bound-to-the-same-umem' 

Magnus Karlsson says:

====================
xsk: support redirect to any socket bound to the same umem

This patch set adds support for directing a packet to any socket bound
to the same umem. This makes it possible to use the XDP program to
select what socket the packet should be received on. The user can
populate the XSKMAP with various sockets and as long as they share the
same umem, the XDP program can pick any one of them.

The implementation is straight-forward. Instead of testing that the
incoming packet is targeting the same device and queue id as the
socket is bound to, just check that the umem the packet was received
on is the same as the socket we want it to be received on. This
guarantees that the redirect is legal as it is already in the correct
umem.

Patch #1 implements the feature and patch #2 adds documentation.

Thanks: Magnus

There is no need to supply an XDP program like the one in the previous
case where sockets were bound to the same queue id and
device. Instead, use the NIC's packet steering capabilities to steer
the packets to the right queue. In the previous example, there is only
one queue shared among sockets, so the NIC cannot do this steering. It
can only steer between queues.

In libbpf, you need to use the xsk_socket__create_shared() API as it
takes a reference to a FILL ring and a COMPLETION ring that will be
created for you and bound to the shared UMEM. You can use this
function for all the sockets you create, or you can use it for the
second and following ones and use xsk_socket__create() for the first
one. Both methods yield the same result.

and device, as well as between queues on the same device and between
