ack, it works properly I guess, I got the following kdoc in the uAPI:

/**
 * enum netdev_xdp_act
 * @NETDEV_XDP_ACT_BASIC: XDP feautues set supported by all drivers
 *   (XDP_ABORTED, XDP_DROP, XDP_PASS, XDP_TX)
 * @NETDEV_XDP_ACT_REDIRECT: The netdev supports XDP_REDIRECT
 * @NETDEV_XDP_ACT_NDO_XMIT: This feature informs if netdev implements
 *   ndo_xdp_xmit callback.
 * @NETDEV_XDP_ACT_XSK_ZEROCOPY: This feature informs if netdev supports AF_XDP
 *   in zero copy mode.
 * @NETDEV_XDP_ACT_HW_OFFLOAD: This feature informs if netdev supports XDP hw
 *   oflloading.
 * @NETDEV_XDP_ACT_RX_SG: This feature informs if netdev implements non-linear
 *   XDP buffer support in the driver napi callback.
 * @NETDEV_XDP_ACT_NDO_XMIT_SG: This feature informs if netdev implements
 *   non-linear XDP buffer support in ndo_xdp_xmit callback.

enum netdev_xdp_act {
        NETDEV_XDP_ACT_BASIC,
        NETDEV_XDP_ACT_REDIRECT,

};
