Subject: [PATCH net-next v2 14/14] netdevsim: release pinned PSP ext on drop paths
Date: Sat, 14 Mar 2026 14:13:48 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260314201348.1786972-15-atwellwea@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260314201348.1786972-1-atwellwea@gmail.com>
From: Wesley Atwell <atwellwea@gmail.com>
nsim_do_psp() can leave an extra extension reference pinned until
nsim_psp_handle_ext() reattaches it to a forwarded skb.
Route the drop paths through a common helper and release that extra
reference when __dev_forward_skb() fails and when start_xmit() drops the
skb before it reaches the peer RX path.
This is separate from the peer RX truesize test hook itself.
