This looks wrong. According to the specification[1] and comment in the
code /include/uapi/linux/bpf.h: "Unknown return codes will result in
packet drop"
I'll fix this.
+ case XDP_ABORTED:
It is not clearly defined, but I believe XDP_ABORTED should also result
in a warning (calling bpf_warn_invalid_xdp_action(act)).
I'll add this.

I've started documenting XDP[2], as this patch clearly shows there is a
need to have a specification, given already the second driver
supporting XDP gets these details wrong.
Indeed. Thanks for doing this.
