OK, even 1536 is more than I expected; I figured it would be way lower, which is why you were suggesting to use num_online_cpus() instead; but yeah, num_possible_cpus() is obviously better, then :) >> > This way the smp_processor_id() provides the serialization by itself as >> > we're under napi on a given cpu, so there's no need for locking >> > introduction - there is a per-cpu XDP ring provided.

Well, it should be possible to detect this at setup time, right? Not too familiar with the driver code, but would it be possible to statically dispatch to an entirely different code path if this happens? -Toke
