BTW, when using pktgen, I got an panic because the skb don't have enough
header room. The code path looks like
do_xdp_generic()
- netif_receive_generic_xdp()
- skb_headroom(skb) < XDP_PACKET_HEADROOM
- pskb_expand_head()
- BUG_ON(skb_shared(skb))
So I added a draft patch for pktgen, not sure if it has any influence.
Hmm, as Jesper said pktgen was really not intended to be used this way,
so I guess that's why. I guess I'll let him comment on whether he thinks
it's worth fixing; or you could send this as a proper patch and see if
anyone complains about it ;)
Don't use pktgen in this way with veth. If anything pktgen should
detect that you use pktgen in virtual interfaces and reject/disallow
that you do this.
OK, got it.
Thanks
