Subject: [PATCH] net/sched: dualpi2: fix GSO backlog accounting
Date: Tue, 16 Jun 2026 18:02:43 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260616220303.31552-1-b1n@b1n.io> (raw)
When DualPI2 splits a GSO skb into N segments, it propagates N
additional packets to its parent before returning NET_XMIT_SUCCESS.
The parent then accounts for the original skb once more, leaving its
qlen one larger than the number of packets actually queued.
With QFQ as the parent, after all real packets are dequeued, QFQ still
has a non-zero qlen while its in-service aggregate has no active
classes. qfq_choose_next_agg() returns NULL and qfq_dequeue() passes
the result to qfq_peek_skb(), causing a NULL pointer dereference.
Count only successfully queued segments and propagate the difference
between the original skb and those segments. Return success whenever
at least one segment was queued.
