AF_XDP support #507

Open vodik opened 1 year ago

vodik commented 1 year ago

Hey, so I see no support for AF_XDP. I'm interested in using that, so I'm currently thinking of working on it.

I'm starting with support for xsk_umem and will work up from there. Opening an issue mostly to see if there's any advice, interest, or if I'm duplicating ongoing work.

Hi! Just assigned the issue to you 😊

Sounds great! There's definitely interest and it's been close to the top of my todo list for a while. Very happy to hand it off to you and also happy to assist with testing, reviews etc along the way.

I started stumbling around with support here: https://github.com/vodik/aya/tree/xdp-tools

I haven't gotten far yet. So far I've added bindgen support to pull definitions of xdp-tools and started playing with them. I'm still figuring out how this library and xdp-tools work.

In the meanwhile, any thoughts on the bindgen part of the equation? xdp/xsk stuff has been split out of libpbf and moved into xdp-tools. Should we make it optional? Put it in another bindings file? In another crate?

I skimmed through your branch and now you've put it with the other bindings right? That seems perfectly ok to me. I don't think we need to make it optional.

Status update, I think I have umem part setup correctly - however terrible the code is.

Hey Folks have you seen https://github.com/CloudNativeDataPlane/cndp/tree/main/lang/rs, would it be of interest from an integration POV?

What is the status of this feature? Do you still have ambitions of completing it @vodik? Or is it currently not being worked on? Does anyone have any estimates of the work remaining?
