Subject: [PATCH net v2 3/3] xen-netback: BUG_ON in xenvif_rx_action() not catching overflow
Date: Thu, 27 Mar 2014 12:56:13 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1395924973-42904-4-git-send-email-paul.durrant@citrix.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1395924973-42904-1-git-send-email-paul.durrant@citrix.com>

The BUG_ON to catch ring overflow in xenvif_rx_action() makes the assumption
that meta_slots_used == ring slots used. This is not necessarily the case
for GSO packets, because the non-prefix GSO protocol consumes one more ring
slot than meta-slot for the 'extra_info'. This patch changes the test to
actually check ring slots.

 - Add explanation as to why meta_slots_used != ring slots used
