Subject: Re: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH] net/mlx5: fix wrong segmented packet in Rx
Date: Wed, 24 Feb 2021 13:20:14 +0000	[thread overview]

Hi, Jiawei

Thank you for the patch, but It seems I need some clarifications.
As far I understand the issue:

- we are in the midst of receiving the multi-segment packet
- we have some mbufs allocated and packet chain is partially built
- we fail on allocation replenishing mbuf for the segment
- we free all the mbuf of the built chain
- exit from the rx_burtst loop
- rq_ci is expected to be kept pointing to the beginning of the current
  stride - it is supposed on next rx_burst() invocation we'll continue
  Rx queue handling from the stride where we failed
- on loop exit we see the code:
   if (unlikely((i == 0) && ((rq_ci >> sges_n) == rxq->rq_ci)))
          return 0;
   /* Update the consumer index. */
   rxq->rq_ci = rq_ci >> sges_n;
hence, rq_ci is always shifted by sges_n, all increments happened
during failed packet processing are just discarded, it seems no fix is needed.

Did I miss something? 

With best regards,
Slava
