I used "efsend_pio" to send 32 udp packets. It took about 70us. Now I don’t know where the problem occurred. Can you give me a test data?

I found three onloads. Which one of them can achieve the expected performance ?

Here, _fini() is a function that calls all library destructors. The
problem is that _fini() decides to run the C++ library destructor
*after* Onload and makes it operate on an invalid Onload state.

The patch leverages the fact that Glibc sets up _fini() after running
the last library constructor, so by manually installing the exit handler
(instead of providing a library destructor), Onload wins the race with
_fini().

There's still an issue if the user library sets a custom exit handler
with atexit() or on_exit() and makes intercepted system calls from
there.

Tested:

* RHEL 7.9/glibc 2.17
* RHEL 8.2/glibc 2.28
* RHEL 9.1/glibc 2.34
