Yes, Rich (cc) moved your email to the bufferbloat list.  I just
pointed out that your reported issue was a classical TC root-queue
locking issue (as someone else mis-interpreted this).

I'm Cc'ing XDP-newbies list, as we should share our finding with the
community on how this TC-lock problem can be solve with XDP.

There a two solutions in XDP-project involving TC-BPF in combination
with XDP.  The one you are talking about is:

Well, yes, *but* notice there are some "home-work" in the bottom of the
script.  You need to code-up the redirecting to the appropriate CPUs
yourself... it will be specific to your use-case if you can partition
the traffic to avoid the TC root-lock.

Can you explain you use-case for us?

> Would you help with my doubts so I can implementing it?

Let help each-other. It doesn't scale that I help on an individual
level.  That is why I bring this to the mailing list
(xdp-newbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx).  Also Cc'ing Yoel and Robert, that have
related interests in this.

I do acknowledge that the documentation in [2] is lacking. Perhaps a
goal should be that we add documentation on howto use it?

A longer term goal is to add contents to this almost empty repo:
 https://github.com/xdp-project/BNG-router
