Subject: [PATCH net-next v2] tun: support NAPI for packets received from batched XDP buffs
Date:   Fri, 25 Feb 2022 17:02:23 +0800

In tun, NAPI is supported and we can also use NAPI in the path of
batched XDP buffs to accelerate packet processing. What is more, after
we use NAPI, GRO is also supported. The iperf shows that the throughput of
single stream could be improved from 4.5Gbps to 9.2Gbps. Additionally, 9.2
Gbps nearly reachs the line speed of the phy nic and there is still about
15% idle cpu core remaining on the vhost thread.

Test topology:
