e1000e driver support? #101

Open ahmet-umut opened 1 month ago

ahmet-umut commented 1 month ago

Hello. As I can see, the e1000e driver does not support XDP in drive/native mode. Are there any workarounds/patches for that? When I searched the web I could find a patch but there was not enough documentation and I doubt that it works on kernel 6.8.x (mine), so I did not try to use it in order to not break my driver for nothing.

To be more specific, I want to utilize XDP's speed by bypassing the Linux network stack. This is why I desire the support for my computers' driver. Is there any way to do this?

My network card is "Intel Corporation Ethernet Connection (2) I219-LM".

I'm not aware of any upstream efforts to add AF_XDP support to e1000e, no.
