Hi netdev,

While trying to reproduce a different rare bug we're seeing in
production I've triggered below on 5.15.9 kernel and confirmed on the
latest netdev master tree:

Nothing comes to mind. skb_shift() has not been recently changed.

Why are you disabling TSO exactly ?

Is GRO being used on veth needed to trigger the bug ?
(GRO was added recently to veth, I confess I did not review the patches)

Yes, it seems enabling GRO for veth actually enables NAPI codepaths,
which trigger this bug (and actually another one we're investigating).
Through trial-and-error it seems disabling TSO is more likely to
trigger it at least in my dev environment. I'm not sure if this bug is
somehow related to the other one we're investigating, but once we have
a fix here I can try to verify before posting it to the mailing list.

This is very likely my fault. I'm investigating it right now.

Thank you very much! Let me know if I can help somehow.

I'm testing the following patch. Could you please have a spin in your
testbed, too?

Seems with the patch the BUG does not reproduce for me anymore.

Thank you for testing. I'll submit that formally after some more
testing on my side.

Thanks!

Paolo
