Hi:
Now, as shown in commit 879af96ffd72("net, core: Add support for
XDP redirection to slave device"), if the master has been attached
program, the slave cannot be attached program. Similarly, if the slave
is already attached program, the master is not allowed to attach the
program. It does work for hw and driver mode. But in skb mode, if the
slave has been attached program, the master also can be attached
program. So I have two questions:
1. should skb mode work the same to hw/drv mode?
2. If other "master" drivers (team?) need to implement XDP feature, is
it more appropriate to place the restriction in dev_xdp_attach? As shown
in the following figure:
