This patch series allows an application to use a single PF_PACKET descriptor and leverage the best implementations of TX_RING and RX_RING that exist today.
Patch 1 adds the kernel/Documentation changes for TX_RING support and patch2 adds the associated test case in selftests. Changes since v2: additional sanity checks for setsockopt input for TX_RING/TPACKET_V3. Refactored psock_tpacket.c test code to avoid code duplication from V2.
