I changed flow in the function to be: int xdp_do_redirect_map(struct net_device *dev, struct xdp_buff *xdp, struct bpf_prog *xdp_prog) { struct redirect_info *ri = this_cpu_ptr(&redirect_info); struct bpf_map *map = ri->map; u32 index = ri->ifindex; struct net_device *fwd; int err = -EINVAL; ri->ifindex = 0; ri->map = NULL; fwd = __dev_map_lookup_elem(map, index); if (!fwd) goto out; if (ri->map_to_flush && (ri->map_to_flush != map)) xdp_do_flush_map(); err = __bpf_tx_xdp(fwd, map, xdp, index); if (likely(!err)) ri->map_to_flush = map; out: trace_xdp_redirect(dev, fwd, xdp_prog, XDP_REDIRECT); return err; } The diff is: diff --git a/net/core/filter.c b/net/core/filter.c index 4ca895d6ed51..c50a7ec2cdab 100644 --- a/net/core/filter.c +++ b/net/core/filter.c @@ -2483,26 +2483,25 @@ int xdp_do_redirect_map(struct net_device *dev, struct xdp_buff *xdp, struct bpf_map *map = ri->map; u32 index = ri->ifindex; struct net_device *fwd; + int err = -EINVAL; + + ri->ifindex = 0; + ri->map = NULL; fwd = __dev_map_lookup_elem(map, index); if (!fwd) goto out; - ri->ifindex = 0; - if (ri->map_to_flush && (ri->map_to_flush != map)) xdp_do_flush_map(); - ri->map_to_flush = map; - ri->map = NULL; + err = __bpf_tx_xdp(fwd, map, xdp, index); + if (likely(!err)) + ri->map_to_flush = map; - trace_xdp_redirect(dev, fwd, xdp_prog, XDP_REDIRECT); - - return __bpf_tx_xdp(fwd, map, xdp, index); out: - ri->ifindex = 0; - ri->map = NULL; - return -EINVAL; + trace_xdp_redirect(dev, fwd, xdp_prog, XDP_REDIRECT); + return err; } int xdp_do_redirect(struct net_device *dev, struct xdp_buff *xdp, -- Best regards, Jesper Dangaard Brouer MSc.CS, Principal Kernel Engineer at Red Hat LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/in/brouer
