Kernel for Galaxy S24, rebased on CLO sources (WIP)
11b7d897cc
XDP_REDIRECT calling xdp_do_redirect() can fail for multiple reasons
(which can be inspected by tracepoints). The current semantics is that
on failure the driver calling xdp_do_redirect() must handle freeing or
recycling the page associated with this frame. This can be seen as an
optimization, as drivers usually have an optimized XDP_DROP code path
for frame recycling in place already.
The virtio_net driver didn't handle when xdp_do_redirect() failed.
This caused a memory leak as the page refcnt wasn't decremented on
failures.
The function __virtnet_xdp_xmit() did handle one type of failure,
when the xmit queue virtqueue_add_outbuf() is full, which "hides"
releasing a refcnt on the page. Instead the function __virtnet_xdp_xmit()
must follow API of xdp_do_redirect(), which on errors leave it up to
the caller to free the page, of the failed send operation.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
