Subject: [PATCH net v2] net: natsemi: fix `rx_dropped` double accounting on `netif_rx()` failure
Date: Sat, 13 Sep 2025 15:01:36 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250913060135.35282-3-yyyynoom@gmail.com> (raw)
`netif_rx()` already increments `rx_dropped` core stat when it fails.
The driver was also updating `ndev->stats.rx_dropped` in the same path.
Since both are reported together via `ip -s -s` command, this resulted
in drops being counted twice in user-visible stats.
Keep the driver update on `if (unlikely(!skb))`, but skip it after
`netif_rx()` errors.
Fixes: caf586e5f23c ("net: add a core netdev->rx_dropped counter")
