Yeah, good suggestion, will clear it here.

What do you think the usecase here might be? Or are you suggesting we
reject further access to data_meta after
bpf_xdp_metadata_export_to_skb somehow?
If we want to let the programs override some of this
bpf_xdp_metadata_export_to_skb() metadata, it feels like we can add
more kfuncs instead of exposing the layout?
bpf_xdp_metadata_export_to_skb(ctx);
bpf_xdp_metadata_export_skb_hash(ctx, 1234);
...

XDP_PASS cases where we convert xdp_buff into skb in the drivers right
now usually have C code to manually pull out the metadata (out of hw
desc) and put it into skb.
So, currently, if we're calling bpf_xdp_metadata_export_to_skb() for
XDP_PASS, we're doing a double amount of work:
skb_metadata_import_from_xdp first, then custom driver code second.
In theory, maybe we should completely skip drivers custom parsing when
there is a prog with BPF_F_XDP_HAS_METADATA?
Then both xdp->skb paths (XDP_PASS+XDP_REDIRECT) will be bpf-driven
and won't require any mental work (plus, the drivers won't have to
care either in the future).
WDYT?
