/**
* DOC: XDP RX-queue information
*
* The XDP RX-queue info (xdp_rxq_info) is associated with the driver
* level RX-ring queues. It is information that is specific to how
* the driver have configured a given RX-ring queue.
*
* Each xdp_buff frame received in the driver carry a (pointer)
* reference to this xdp_rxq_info structure. This provides the XDP
* data-path read-access to RX-info for both kernel and bpf-side
* (limited subset).
*
* For now, direct access is only safe while running in NAPI/softirq
* context. Contents is read-mostly and must not be updated during
* driver NAPI/softirq poll.
*
* The driver usage API is a register and unregister API.
*
* The struct is not directly tied to the XDP prog. A new XDP prog
* can be attached as long as it doesn't change the underlying
* RX-ring. If the RX-ring does change significantly, the NIC driver
* naturally need to stop the RX-ring before purging and reallocating
* memory. In that process the driver MUST call unregistor (which
* also apply for driver shutdown and unload). The register API is
* also mandatory during RX-ring setup.
