When testing the XDP_REDIRECT function on the LS1028A platform, we
found a very reproducible issue that the Tx frames can no longer be
sent out even if XDP_REDIRECT is turned off. Specifically, if there
is a lot of traffic on Rx direction, when XDP_REDIRECT is turned on,
the console may display some warnings like "timeout for tx ring #6
clear", and all redirected frames will be dropped, the detailed log
is as follows.
root@ls1028ardb:~# ./xdp-bench redirect eno0 eno2
Redirecting from eno0 (ifindex 3; driver fsl_enetc) to eno2 (ifindex 4; driver fsl_enetc)

[204.006051] fsl_enetc 0000:00:00.2 eno2: timeout for tx ring #6 clear
[204.161944] fsl_enetc 0000:00:00.2 eno2: timeout for tx ring #7 clear

xmit eno0->eno2 0 xmit/s 1420485 drop/s 0 drv_err/s 15.71 bulk-avg
By analyzing the XDP_REDIRECT implementation of enetc driver, the
driver will reconfigure Tx and Rx BD rings when a bpf program is
installed or uninstalled, but there is no mechanisms to block the
redirected frames when enetc driver reconfigures rings. Similarly,
XDP_TX verdicts on received frames can also lead to frames being
enqueued in the Tx rings. Because XDP ignores the state set by the
netif_tx_wake_queue() API, so introduce the ENETC_TX_DOWN flag to
suppress transmission of XDP frames.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
