[PATCH linux-next v2] selftests: net: udpgso_bench_tx: Add test for IP fragmentation of UDP packets

From: zhang yunkai (CGEL ZTE) <zhang.yunkai@xxxxxxxxxx>

The UDP GSO bench only tests the performance of userspace payload splitting
and UDP GSO. But we are also concerned about the performance comparing with
IP fragmentation and UDP GSO. In other words comparing IP fragmentation and
segmentation.

So we add testcase of IP fragmentation of UDP packets, then user would easy
to get to know the performance promotion of UDP GSO compared with IP
fragmentation. We add a new option "-f", which is to send big data using
IP fragmentation instead of using UDP GSO or userspace payload splitting.

In the QEMU environment we could see obvious promotion of UDP GSO.
The first test is to get the performance of userspace payload splitting.
bash# udpgso_bench_tx -l 4 -4 -D "$DST"
udp tx: 21 MB/s 15162 calls/s 361 msg/s
udp tx: 21 MB/s 15498 calls/s 369 msg/s
udp tx: 18 MB/s 13440 calls/s 320 msg/s
udp tx: 19 MB/s 13776 calls/s 328 msg/s

The second test is to get the performance of IP fragmentation.
bash# udpgso_bench_tx -l 4 -4 -D "$DST" -f
udp tx: 41 MB/s 711 calls/s 711 msg/s
udp tx: 41 MB/s 700 calls/s 700 msg/s
udp tx: 43 MB/s 738 calls/s 738 msg/s
udp tx: 40 MB/s 693 calls/s 693 msg/s

The third test is to get the performance of UDP GSO.
bash# udpgso_bench_tx -l 4 -4 -D "$DST" -S 0
udp tx: 45 MB/s 775 calls/s 775 msg/s
udp tx: 47 MB/s 800 calls/s 800 msg/s
udp tx: 47 MB/s 814 calls/s 814 msg/s
udp tx: 47 MB/s 812 calls/s 812 msg/s

v2: Suggested by Willem de Bruijn <willemdebruijn.kernel@xxxxxxxxx>
- Use IP_PMTUDISC_OMIT to disable PMTU discovery and to avoid send
returning with error after ICMP destination unreachable messages if MTU
is exceeded in the path.
