Patch is really big and I'm not sure how to trim this TBH to make my
comments bearable. I know this is highly optimized but it's rather hard to
follow with all of the callbacks, defines/aligns and whatnot. Any chance
to chop this commit a bit?

Timers and locking logic could be pulled out to separate patches I think.
You don't ever say what improvement gave you the __LIBETH_WORD_ACCESS
approach. You've put a lot of thought onto this work and I feel like this
is not explained/described thoroughly. What would be nice to see is to
have this in the separate commit as well with a comment like 'this gave me
+X% performance boost on Y workload'. That would be probably a non-zero
effort to restructure it but generally while jumping back and forth
through this code I had a lot of head-scratching moments.

The @raw approach is never used throughout the patchset, right?
Could you explain the reason for introducing this and potential use case?

what's the delta between this and libeth_sq_napi_stats ? couldn't you have
a single struct for purpose of tx napi stats?

what is the rationale for storing/loading xdp_buff onto/from driver's Rx
