OK, can do.

Right, will fix.

Hmm, yeah, should probably have added an explanation, sorry about that :)

No, as you note there's already ingress_ifindex to set the device, and
the test does use that:
+ memcpy(skel->rodata->expect_dst, &pkt_udp.eth.h_dest, ETH_ALEN);
+ skel->rodata->ifindex_out = ifindex_src;
+ ctx_in.ingress_ifindex = ifindex_src;
I enable forwarding because the XDP program that counts the packets is
running on the other end of the veth pair (on veth_dst), while the
traffic gen is using veth_src as its ingress ifindex. So for XDP_TX and
XDP_REDIRECT we send the frame back out the veth device, and it ends up
being processed by the XDP program on veth_dst, and counted. But when
the test program returns XDP_PASS, the packet will go up the frame; so
to get it back to the counting program I enable forwarding and set the
packet dst IP so that the stack routes it back out the same interface.
I'll admit this is a bit hacky; I guess I can add a second TC ingress
program that will count the packets being XDP_PASS'ed instead...
