Okay, I'm gonna test and submit this later today for bpf tree:
diff --git a/net/xdp/xsk.c b/net/xdp/xsk.c
index 72335c2e8108..4e937cd7c17d 100644
--- a/net/xdp/xsk.c
+++ b/net/xdp/xsk.c
@@ -84,10 +84,8 @@ static int __xsk_rcv_zc(struct xdp_sock *xs, struct xdp_buff
*xdp, u32 len)
{
int err = xskq_produce_batch_desc(xs->rx, (u64)xdp->handle, len);
- if (err) {
- xdp_return_buff(xdp);
+ if (err)
xs->rx_dropped++;
- }
return err;
}
Now the frame return/ZC allocator ->free path is all dead code :S
