Subject: [PATCH v1] net/intel: fix mbuf leak in idpf split queue Tx path
Date: Thu, 12 Mar 2026 16:31:33 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260312110133.629246-1-shaiq.wani@intel.com> (raw)

RS completion only frees the EOP entry's mbuf, leaking preceding
segments of multi-segment packets. Add a first_id field to the Tx
entry struct, record the first sw_id at the EOP entry during submit,
and walk forward from first to EOP to free all segments on completion.

Fixes: 8c6098afa075 ("common/idpf: add Rx/Tx data path")
Cc: stable@dpdk.org
