Series [v2] public/io/netif.h: add a new extra type for XDP | expand

Commit Message

Denis Kirjanov May 18, 2020, 9:53 a.m. UTC
The patch adds a new extra type to be able to diffirentiate
between RX responses on xen-netfront side with the adjusted offset
required for XDP processing.

For Linux the offset value is going to be passed via xenstore.

Signed-off-by: Denis Kirjanov <denis.kirjanov@suse.com>

v2:
- added documentation
- fixed padding for netif_extra_info
