Hi Frank,

It looks reasonable to set virtual DPDK af_xdp device socket to actual
underlying device socket. And as I checked quickly, it works as expected.

But what is the impact and motivation of the patch? In other words why
you are doing this patch and what output you are expecting as a result?
Did you able to do any performance testing, and are you observing any
difference before and after this test?


Thanks,
