Hmm, not sure why is that?
You are talking about freeing m1, right?
rte_pktmbuf_prefree_seg(struct rte_mbuf *m)
{
...
if (m->next != NULL) {
m->next = NULL;
m->nb_segs = 1;
}
m1->next != NULL, so it will enter the if() block,
and will reset both next and nb_segs.
What I am missing here?
Thinking in more generic way, that change:
- if (m->next != NULL) {
- m->next = NULL;
- m->nb_segs = 1;
- }
+ m->next = NULL;
+ m->nb_segs = 1;
Assumes that it is ok to have an mbuf with
nb_seg > 1 and next == NULL.
Which seems wrong to me.
