When attaching XDP programs, userspace can set flags to request the attach mode (generic/SKB mode, driver mode or hw offloaded mode). If no such flags are requested, the kernel will attempt to attach in driver mode, and then silently fall back to SKB mode if this fails. The silent fallback is a major source of user confusion, as users will try to load a program on a device without XDP support, and instead of an error they will get the silent fallback behaviour, not notice, and then wonder why performance is not what they were expecting. In an attempt to combat this, let's switch all the samples to default to explicitly requesting driver-mode attach. As part of this, ensure that all the userspace utilities have a switch to enable SKB mode. For those that have a switch to request driver mode, keep it but turn it into a no-op.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
