Subject: [PATCH V4 net 3/3] tuntap: correctly add the missing XDP flush
Date: Sat, 24 Feb 2018 11:32:26 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1519443146-9089-3-git-send-email-jasowang@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1519443146-9089-1-git-send-email-jasowang@redhat.com>

We don't flush batched XDP packets through xdp_do_flush_map(), this
will cause packets stall at TX queue. Consider we don't do XDP on NAPI
poll(), the only possible fix is to call xdp_do_flush_map()
immediately after xdp_do_redirect().

Note, this in fact won't try to batch packets through devmap, we could
address in the future.
