Subject: [PATCH net 3/4] xsk: drain continuation descs after overflow in xsk_build_skb()
Date: Sun, 10 May 2026 09:23:09 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260510012310.88570-4-kerneljasonxing@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260510012310.88570-1-kerneljasonxing@gmail.com>
From: Jason Xing <kernelxing@tencent.com>
When a multi-buffer packet exceeds MAX_SKB_FRAGS and triggers -EOVERFLOW,
only the current descriptor is released from the TX ring. The remaining
continuation descriptors of the same packet stay in the ring. Since
xs->skb is set to NULL after the drop, the TX loop picks up these
leftover frags and misinterprets each one as the beginning of a new
packet, corrupting the packet stream.
Fix this by adding a drain_cont flag to xdp_sock. When overflow occurs
and the dropped descriptor has XDP_PKT_CONTD set, the flag is raised.
The main TX loop in __xsk_generic_xmit() then handles continuation
descriptors one at a time: each gets a normal CQ reservation (with
backpressure), its address is submitted to the completion queue, and
the descriptor is released from the TX ring. When the last fragment
(without XDP_PKT_CONTD) is processed, the flag is cleared and the
function returns -EOVERFLOW so the next call starts with a fresh
budget for normal packets.
This reuses the existing CQ backpressure and budget mechanisms, so if
the CQ is full the function returns -EAGAIN and userspace drains the
CQ before retrying. Zero buffer leakage, zero packet stream corruption.
Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260425041726.85FB3C2BCB2@smtp.kernel.org/
Fixes: cf24f5a5feea ("xsk: add support for AF_XDP multi-buffer on Tx path")
