Jesper,
currently the driver allocate page per rx buffer, but we are considering to support mode where page split to 2 buffers in order to overcome memory fragmentation issue on low memory systems. but, this won't work with XDP, right?
what's your advice?

    What are your plans for XDP?
    
    You are unsure ask your-colleague David Woodhouse, who I've discussed
    this with when he attended my talk at Kernel-Recipes[1], slide[2].
