Björn Töpel d7d962a095 libbpf: Use implicit XSKMAP lookup from AF_XDP XDP program 
In commit 43e74c0267 ("bpf_xdp_redirect_map: Perform map lookup in
eBPF helper") the bpf_redirect_map() helper learned to do map lookup,
which means that the explicit lookup in the XDP program for AF_XDP is
not needed for post-5.3 kernels.

This commit adds the implicit map lookup with default action, which
improves the performance for the "rx_drop" [1] scenario with ~4%.

For pre-5.3 kernels, the bpf_redirect_map() returns XDP_ABORTED, and a
fallback path for backward compatibility is entered, where explicit
lookup is still performed. This means a slight regression for older
kernels (an additional bpf_redirect_map() call), but I consider that a
fair punishment for users not upgrading their kernels. ;-)

v1->v2: Backward compatibility (Toke) [2]
v2->v3: Avoid masking/zero-extension by using JMP32 [3]

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
