This statement is not accurate -- The data path of netvsc driver does memory allocation and copy even without XDP, so it's not "a slowdown to enable XDP". Thanks, - Haiyang

The hyperv NIC drivers XDP implementation is rather disappointing as it will be a slowdown to enable XDP on this driver, given it will allocate a new page for each packet and copy over the payload, before invoking the XDP BPF-prog. The positive thing it that its easy to determine the xdp.frame_sz. The XDP implementation for hv_netvsc transparently passes xdp_prog to the associated VF NIC. Many of the Azure VMs are using SRIOV, so majority of the data are actually processed directly on the VF driver's XDP path. So the overhead of the synthetic data path (hv_netvsc) is minimal. Then XDP is enabled on this driver, XDP_PASS and XDP_TX will create the SKB via build_skb (based on the newly allocated page). Now using XDP frame_sz this will provide more skb_tailroom, which netstack can use for SKB coalescing (e.g tcp_try_coalesce -> skb_try_coalesce). Cc: Wei Liu <wei.liu@kernel.org> Cc: "K. Y.
