[PATCH net 0/3] XDP generic related fixes

[Stephen Hemminger]

This set of patches came about while investigating XDP
generic on Azure. The split brain nature of the accelerated
networking exposed issues with the stack device model.

The real fix is in the second patch which is a redo
of earlier patch from Jason Wang.

  netvsc: unshare skb in VF rx handler
  net: core: generic XDP support for stacked device
  netdevice: clarify meaning of rx_handler_result

[PATCH net 1/3] netvsc: unshare skb in VF rx handler

[Stephen Hemminger]

The netvsc VF skb handler should make sure that skb is not
shared. Similar logic already exists in bonding and team device
drivers.

This is not an issue in practice because the VF devicex
does not send up shared skb's. But the netvsc driver
should do the right thing if it did.

[PATCH net 2/3] net: core: generic XDP support for stacked device

[Stephen Hemminger]

When a device is stacked like (team, bonding, failsafe or netvsc) the
XDP generic program for the parent device is not called.  In these
cases, the rx handler changes skb->dev to its own in the receive
handler, and returns RX_HANDLER_ANOTHER.  Fix this by calling
do_xdp_generic if necessary before starting another round.

Review of all the places RX_HANDLER_ANOTHER is returned
show that the current devices do correctly change skb->dev.

There was an older patch that got abandoned that did the
same thing, this is just a rewrite.

[PATCH net 3/3] netdevice: clarify meaning of rx_handler_result

[Stephen Hemminger]

Make the language in comment about rx_handler_result clearer.
Especially the meaning of RX_HANDLER_ANOTHER.

Replace use of "should" with "must" to be in line with common
usage in standards documents.

Thanks, left over from previous version forgot to trim.
