Subject: [PATCH net 3/7] xsk: drain continuation descs on invalid descriptor in __xsk_generic_xmit()
Date: Tue, 23 Jun 2026 15:32:36 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260623133240.1048434-4-maciej.fijalkowski@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260623133240.1048434-1-maciej.fijalkowski@intel.com>

From: Jason Xing <kernelxing@tencent.com>

When the TX loop in __xsk_generic_xmit() encounters an invalid
descriptor mid-packet (e.g. an out-of-bounds address), the partial
skb is dropped and the offending descriptor is released. However,
remaining continuation descriptors belonging to the same multi-buffer
packet still sit in the TX ring. Since xs->skb becomes NULL after the
drop, the next iteration treats the leftover continuation fragment as
a brand-new packet, corrupting the packet stream.

Fix this by setting the drain_cont flag when the released descriptor
has XDP_PKT_CONTD set. On the next call to __xsk_generic_xmit(), the
drain logic introduced in the previous patch handles the remaining
fragments with normal CQ backpressure.

There is one subtle case: if a subsequent continuation descriptor also
has an invalid address, xskq_cons_peek_desc() rejects it and the
while loop is never entered, so the in-loop drain path cannot clear
drain_cont. The post-loop code already handles this: it sees
xskq_has_descs() is true (the failed descriptor was read but not
released by peek), releases it, and checks its XDP_PKT_CONTD flag.
Add an else branch so that when the released descriptor is the
last fragment (no XDP_PKT_CONTD), drain_cont is cleared. This
prevents the next valid packet from being incorrectly drained.

Fixes: cf24f5a5feea ("xsk: add support for AF_XDP multi-buffer on Tx path")
