There are many abbreviations in the code, not easy for newbies to understand the code.

Hi folks,

Thank all of you for hard work in this great project. Recently I have been learning our project code, and also wrote an Chinese blog about loxilb project.

As a newbie, I met some trouble to understand the project code because there are many abbreviations in code. For example, it's difficult to guess the meaning of field "has_pb" in struct l "lb_dp_map". Is there any way to help me understand the code abbreviation quickly?

Hope developers can add some code comments, especially for uncommon abbreviation , which may help more developers to join the project.

Thanks.

Thanks @fuchencong for writing a wonderful blog. We try our best to maintain the best possible code comments/docs as per Go standards. For your specific question -

"has_pb" indicates if an eBPF map has some associated per-CPU packet and(or) byte counter map. As you could probably understand expanding it would make the names simply too long.

We did go through documentation/readability improvement activity, but still, there is room for improvement. If there is something you would like to change for better readability, feel free to change and send a pull-request. Will be happy to review and merge !!
