If I understand it correctly, The user needs to change all the application in order to avail zero copy feature of XDP. If so, How about creating wrapper mempool driver for xdp at drivers/mempool/? and mempool's best mempool feature to select the required mempool driver for XDP at runtime without changing the apps. see rte_mbuf_best_mempool_ops() see struct eth_dev_ops::pool_ops_supported /Jerin
