Your calculation of headroom is still adding an assumption that
xdp_frame is located in the top of data area, that is unnecessary.

The headroom can be calculated as:

   headroom = sizeof(struct xdp_frame) + frame->headroom - delta;

Thanks. But I'm not sure I get what you are requesting.

I'm simply requesting you do not use the (void *)frame pointer address,
to calculate the headroom, as it can be calculated in another way.

I don't see difference, but ok I can change this calculation as you prefer a different way.

Supposing xdp_frame is not located in the top of data area, what ensures
that additional sizeof(struct xdp_frame) can be used?

The calculation in convert_to_xdp_frame() assures this.  If we later
add an xdp_frame that is not located in the top of data area, and want
to change the reserved headroom size, then we deal with it, and update
the code.

I just thought you are requesting the change so that we don't need to change this code even when convert_to_xdp_frame() is changed. Now I see my guess was wrong.

will send v8.
