Subject: [PATCH net 4/4] virtio-net: allow more allocated space for mergeable XDP
Date: Wed, 25 Jun 2025 23:08:49 +0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250625160849.61344-5-minhquangbui99@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250625160849.61344-1-minhquangbui99@gmail.com>

When the mergeable receive buffer is prefilled before XDP is set, it
does not reserve the space for XDP_PACKET_HEADROOM and skb_shared_info.
So when XDP is set and this buffer is used to receive frame, we need to
create a new buffer with reserved headroom, tailroom and copy the frame
data over. Currently, the new buffer's size is restricted to PAGE_SIZE
only. If the frame data's length + headroom + tailroom exceeds
PAGE_SIZE, the frame is dropped.

However, it seems like there is no restriction on the total size in XDP.
So we can just increase the size of new buffer to 2 * PAGE_SIZE in that
case and continue to process the frame.

In my opinion, the current drop behavior is fine and expected so this
commit is just an improvement not a bug fix.
