Sorry for keeping nitpicking on this, but I'm still not convinced that it is what we currently do. From my previous reply: > > Looking at a few drivers: > > - bnxt (bnxt_rx_pkt) does UNNECESSARY - ok > > - mlx5 (mlx5e_handle_csum) does UNNECESSARY and skips COMPLETE if there is > > bpf prog attached > > - fbnic (fbnic_rx_csum) - can do COMPLETE even with xdp attached? > > - gve (gve_rx) - can do COMPLETE even with xdp attached? (although for gve I might be wrong, there is also gve_rx_skb_csum that only does UNNECESSARY). I'd wait for Jakub to chime in, but it feels like we should just document what we currently do as a recommended approach: for the drivers that support COMPLETE, do not report it when the bpf program is attached. Both NONE and UNNECESSARY are ok. Also, did you run this test on real HW? NIPA now has HW tests, maybe it makes sense to route this series via net-next to get the real coverage?
