The mlx5 driver have multiple memory models, which are also changed according to whether a XDP bpf_prog is attached. The 'rx_striding_rq' setting is adjusted via ethtool priv-flags e.g.: # ethtool --set-priv-flags mlx5p2 rx_striding_rq off On the general case with 4K page_size and regular MTU packet, then the frame_sz is 2048 and 4096 when XDP is enabled, in both modes. The info on the given frame size is stored differently depending on the RQ-mode and encoded in a union in struct mlx5e_rq union wqe/mpwqe. In rx striding mode rq->mpwqe.log_stride_sz is either 11 or 12, which corresponds to 2048 or 4096 (MLX5_WQ_TYPE_LINKED_LIST_STRIDING_RQ). In non-striding mode (MLX5_WQ_TYPE_CYCLIC) the frag_stride is stored in rq->wqe.info.arr[0].frag_stride, for the first fragment, which is what the XDP case cares about. To reduce effect on fast-path, this patch determine the frame_sz at setup time, to avoid determining the memory model runtime. Variable is named first_frame_sz to make it clear that this is only the frame size of the first fragment. This mlx5 driver does a DMA-sync on XDP_TX action, but grow is safe as it have done a DMA-map on the entire PAGE_SIZE. The driver also already does a XDP length check against sq->hw_mtu on the possible XDP xmit paths mlx5e_xmit_xdp_frame() + mlx5e_xmit_xdp_frame_mpwqe(). V2: Fix that frag_size need to be recalc before creating SKB.
