The changes for ADq doc update that includes explanation for this technology:
/**
 * ADQ (Application Device Queues) is an open technology to help address 
network traffic challenges by improving application
* throughput and latency, and, most importantly, by enabling greater 
predictability in application response times by creating 
* application specific traffic queuing and steering.
*
* Modern Network Interface Card (NIC) devices have multiple queues or channels 
to transmit and receive Network packets. ADQ 
* lets each software application reserve subset of these device queues, so that 
all the traffic, and only the traffic, belonging to the
* application is directed to those set of queues avoiding sharing or competing 
for network resources with other applications in the
* system. 
*
* System Administrator allocates Network resources to an application in a 
multi-application environment including set of device 
* queues (Number of Tx/RX queue pairs), dedicated for application traffic. In 
addition, QoS attributes can be applied to these 
* Application Queues such as Network bandwidth limits & Traffic priority. 
Device then assigns the incoming application connections
* to these set of queues by defined policies such as round robin. ADQ provides 
hints to applications, by means of a new socket option
* SO_INCOMING_NAPI_ID, to indicate the device queue from the set of assigned 
queues, to which an incoming socket connection and
* packets for that connection are directed to.
*
* For a multi-threaded application to take advantage of these dedicated queues, 
application needs ability to query which queue a 
* connection is assigned to, so all socket connections from a specific device 
queue can be serviced by a single application thread. 
* Application then may utilize busy polling to receive and transmit the network 
packets, minimizing system interrupts and context 
* switches to better align overall system resources to applications. This helps 
in improved predictability, reduce latency and improve 
* throughput for ADQ enabled Application.  
*
* The value of this SO_INCOMING_NAPI_ID socket option is an Integer, uniquely 
representing the network device queue on which the 
* last packet of the socket connection is received on. This option is available 
for both stream-oriented and datagram-oriented sockets 
* on both client and server sockets. The value returned for this socket option 
will be zero until the socket is connected and has received 
* a network packet, at which point it will be a non-zero integer value. This is 
a read only option. Attempting to set the socket option will 
* cause UOE to be thrown.
*/

 Thanks, Vladimir

(Dropping core-libs-dev as net-dev is the more appropriate list for this area).

Thanks for the update.

The updated javadoc looks better but will need a few iterations. It would be 
good if it could start by explaining what the value of the socket option is, 
e.g. "The value of this socket option is an Integer representing the network 
device queue ...". I think it needs to be clearer on the types of sockets that 
support this option, does it support both stream-oriented and datagram-oriented 
sockets? Does it return a value when invoked on a ServerSocketChannel? Instead 
of @throws, the text will need to that attempting to set the socket option will 
cause UOE to be thrown. Once the javadoc is agreed then the CSR can be 
submitted and the code review can continue in parallel.

The implementation changes mostly look okay although
IncomingNapiIdSupported0 should probably be renamed to start with lower case 
"i". Also someone might need to check that you can create an IPv4 socket when a 
system is configured as an IPv6-only system.

Tests. I think the the new tests in ExtOptionTest will need closer examination 
as I can't tell how reliable they are. It might be that it needs a completely 
new test. The update to the NIO PrintSupportedOptions test define 
READ_ONLY_OPTS as Set<String>.
