This patch introduces a simple queue selection policy which just
choose txq based on processor id. This maybe useful for connectless
workload or #queues is equal to #cpus.
Redirect UDP packets generated by MoonGen between two virtio-net ports
through xdp_redirect show 37.4% (from 0.8Mpps to 1.1Mpps) improvement
compared to automatic steering policy since the overhead of flow
caches/hasing was totally eliminated.
