[PATCH net-next v3 3/6] net: bcmgenet: add basic XDP support (PASS/DROP)

From: Nicolai Buchwitz

Date: Thu Mar 19 2026 - 07:56:02 EST


Add XDP program attachment via ndo_bpf and execute XDP programs in the
RX path. XDP_PASS builds an SKB from the xdp_buff (handling
xdp_adjust_head/tail), XDP_DROP returns the page to page_pool without
SKB allocation.

XDP_TX and XDP_REDIRECT are not yet supported and return XDP_ABORTED.

Advertise NETDEV_XDP_ACT_BASIC in xdp_features.
