Alan Maguire cd5385029f selftests/bpf: measure RTT from xdp using xdping
xdping allows us to get latency estimates from XDP.  Output looks
like this:

./xdping -I eth4 192.168.55.8
Setting up XDP for eth4, please wait...
XDP setup disrupts network connectivity, hit Ctrl+C to quit

Normal ping RTT data
[Ignore final RTT; it is distorted by XDP using the reply]

The xdping program loads the associated xdping_kern.o BPF program
and attaches it to the specified interface.  If run in client
mode (the default), it will add a map entry keyed by the
target IP address; this map will store RTT measurements, current
sequence number etc.  Finally in client mode the ping command
is executed, and the xdping BPF program will use the last ICMP
reply, reformulate it as an ICMP request with the next sequence
number and XDP_TX it.  After the reply to that request is received
we can measure RTT and repeat until the desired number of
measurements is made.  This is why the sequence numbers in the
normal ping are 1, 2, 3 and 8.  We XDP_TX a modified version
of ICMP reply 4 and keep doing this until we get the 4 replies
we need; hence the networking stack only sees reply 8, where
we have XDP_PASSed it upstream since we are done.

In server mode (-s), xdping simply takes ICMP requests and replies
to them in XDP rather than passing the request up to the networking
stack.  No map entry is required.

xdping can be run in native XDP mode (the default, or specified
via -N) or in skb mode (-S).

A test program test_xdping.sh exercises some of these options.

Note that native XDP does not seem to XDP_TX for veths, hence -N
is not tested.  Looking at the code, it looks like XDP_TX is
supported so I'm not sure if that's expected.  Running xdping in
native mode for ixgbe as both client and server works fine.

Changes since v4

- close fds on cleanup (Song Liu)

Changes since v3

- fixed seq to be __be16 (Song Liu)
- fixed fd checks in xdping.c (Song Liu)

Changes since v2

- updated commit message to explain why seq number of last
  ICMP reply is 8 not 4 (Song Liu)
- updated types of seq number, raddr and eliminated csum variable
  in xdpclient/xdpserver functions as it was not needed (Song Liu)
- added XDPING_DEFAULT_COUNT definition and usage specification of
  default/max counts (Song Liu)

Changes since v1
 - moved from RFC to PATCH
 - removed unused variable in ipv4_csum() (Song Liu)
 - refactored ICMP checks into icmp_check() function called by client
   and server programs and reworked client and server programs due
   to lack of shared code (Song Liu)
 - added checks to ensure that SKB and native mode are not requested
   together (Song Liu)
