Merge branch 'bpf-af-xdp-consistent-err-reporting'

Magnus Karlsson says:

====================
This patch set adjusts the AF_XDP TX error reporting so that it becomes
consistent between copy mode and zero-copy. First some background:

Copy-mode for TX uses the SKB path in which the action of sending the
packet is performed from process context using the sendmsg
syscall. Completions are usually done asynchronously from NAPI mode by
using a TX interrupt. In this mode, send errors can be returned back
through the syscall.

In zero-copy mode both the sending of the packet and the completions
are done asynchronously from NAPI mode for performance reasons. In
this mode, the sendmsg syscall only makes sure that the TX NAPI loop
will be run that performs both the actions of sending and
completing. In this mode it is therefore not possible to return errors
through the sendmsg syscall as the sending is done from the NAPI
loop. Note that it is possible to implement a synchronous send with
our API, but in our benchmarks that made the TX performance drop by
nearly half due to synchronization requirements and cache line
bouncing. But for some netdevs this might be preferable so let us
leave it up to the implementation to decide.

The problem is that the current code base returns some errors in
copy-mode that are not possible to return in zero-copy mode. This
patch set aligns them so that the two modes always return the same
error code. We achieve this by removing some of the errors returned by
sendmsg in copy-mode (and in one case adding an error message for
zero-copy mode) and offering alternative error detection methods that
are consistent between the two modes.

The structure of the patch set is as follows:

Patch 1: removes the ENXIO return code from copy-mode when someone has
forcefully changed the number of queues on the device so that the
queue bound to the socket is no longer available. Just silently stop
sending anything as in zero-copy mode.

Patch 2: stop returning EAGAIN in copy mode when the completion queue
is full as zero-copy does not do this. Instead this situation can be
detected by comparing the head and tail pointers of the completion
queue in both modes. In any case, EAGAIN was not the correct error code
here since no amount of calling sendmsg will solve the problem. Only
consuming one or more messages on the completion queue will fix this.

Patch 3: Always return ENOBUFS from sendmsg if there is no TX queue
configured. This was not the case for zero-copy mode.

Patch 4: stop returning EMSGSIZE when the size of the packet is larger
than the MTU. Just send it to the device so that it will drop it as in
zero-copy mode.

Note that copy-mode can still return EAGAIN in certain circumstances,
but as these conditions cannot occur in zero-copy mode it is fine for
copy-mode to return them.
