[PATCH V4 net 3/3] tuntap: correctly add the missing XDP flush

From: Jason Wang <hidden>
Date: 2018-02-24 03:32:52
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: networking drivers, the rest, tun/tap driver · Maintainers: Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds, Willem de Bruijn, Jason Wang

We don't flush batched XDP packets through xdp_do_flush_map(), this
will cause packets stall at TX queue. Consider we don't do XDP on NAPI
poll(), the only possible fix is to call xdp_do_flush_map()
immediately after xdp_do_redirect().

Note, this in fact won't try to batch packets through devmap, we could
address in the future.
