Thanks for the reference and yes, that is the goal: allow XDP in the most use cases possible. e.g., Why limit XDP_DROP which requires no resources because XDP_TX does not work? I agree a flag in the api is an ugly way to allow it. For the verifier approach, you mean add an internal flag (e.g., bitmask of return codes) that the program uses and the NIC driver can check at attach time?
