Subject: [RFC bpf-next 5/5] samples/bpf/xdpsock_user.c: Launchtime/TXTIME API usage

From: Jithu Joseph <jithu.joseph@...el.com>

Adds -L flag to the xdpsock commandline options. Using this
in conjuction with "-t txonly" option exercises the
Launchtime/Txtime APIs. These allows the application to specify
when each packet should be transmitted by the NIC.

Below is an example of how this option may be exercised:

sudo xdpsock -i enp1s0  -t -q 1 -N -s 128 -z -L

The above invocation would transmit  "batch_size" packets each spaced
1us apart. The first packet in the batch is to be launched
"LAUNCH_TIME_ADVANCE_NS" into the future and the remaining packets
in the batch should be spaced 1us apart.

Since launch-time enabled NICs would wait LAUNCH_TIME_ADVANCE_NS(500us)
between batches of packets, the emphasis of this path is not throughput.

Launch-time should be enabled for the chosen hardware queue using the
appropriate tc qdisc command before starting the application and
also NIC hardware clock should be synchronized to the system clock
using a mechanism like phc2sys.
