Ice driver needs to be a bit reworked on Rx data path in order to support multi-buffer XDP. For skb path, it currently works in a way that Rx ring carries pointer to skb so if driver didn't manage to combine fragmented frame at current NAPI instance, it can restore the state on next instance and keep looking for last fragment (so descriptor with EOP bit set). What needs to be achieved is that xdp_buff needs to be combined in such way (linear + frags part) in the first place. Then skb will be ready to go in case of XDP_PASS or BPF program being not present on interface. If BPF program is there, it would work on multi-buffer XDP. At this point xdp_buff resides directly on Rx ring, so given the fact that skb will be built straight from xdp_buff, there will be no further need to carry skb on Rx ring. Besides removing skb pointer from Rx ring, lots of members have been moved around within ice_rx_ring. First and foremost reason was to place rx_buf with xdp_buff on the same cacheline. This means that once we touch rx_buf (which is a preceding step before touching xdp_buff), xdp_buff will already be hot in cache. Second thing was that xdp_rxq is used rather rarely and it occupies a separate cacheline, so maybe it is better to have it at the end of ice_rx_ring. Other change that affects ice_rx_ring is the introduction of ice_rx_ring::first_desc. Its purpose is twofold - first is to propagate rx_buf->act to all the parts of current xdp_buff after running XDP program, so that ice_put_rx_buf() that got moved out of the main Rx processing loop will be able to tak an appriopriate action on each buffer. Second is for ice_construct_skb(). ice_construct_skb() has a copybreak mechanism which had an explicit impact on xdp_buff->skb conversion in the new approach when legacy Rx flag is toggled. It works in a way that linear part is 256 bytes long, if frame is bigger than that, remaining bytes are going as a frag to skb_shared_info. This means while memcpying frags from xdp_buff to newly allocated skb, care needs to be taken when picking the destination frag array entry. Upon the time ice_construct_skb() is called, when dealing with fragmented frame, current rx_buf points to the *last* fragment, but copybreak needs to be done against the first one. That's where ice_rx_ring::first_desc helps. When frame building spans across NAPI polls (DD bit is not set on current descriptor and xdp->data is not NULL) with current Rx buffer handling state there might be some problems. Since calls to ice_put_rx_buf() were pulled out of the main Rx processing loop and were scoped from cached_ntc to current ntc, remember that now mentioned function relies on rx_buf->act, which is set within ice_run_xdp(). ice_run_xdp() is called when EOP bit was found, so currently we could put Rx buffer with rx_buf->act being *uninitialized*. To address this, change scoping to rely on first_desc on both boundaries instead. This also implies that cleaned_count which is used as an input to ice_alloc_rx_buffers() and tells how many new buffers should be refilled has to be adjusted. If it stayed as is, what could happen is a case where ntc would go over ntu. Therefore, remove cleaned_count altogether and use against allocing routine newly introduced ICE_RX_DESC_UNUSED() macro which is an equivalent of ICE_DESC_UNUSED() dedicated for Rx side and based on struct ice_rx_ring::first_desc instead of next_to_clean.

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.
