Hi Joe,

Thanks for the quick response.
Comments inline, If you need more details or further clarification,
please let me know.

As mentioned above and in my previous emails: please provide lot
more detail and make it as easy as possible for me to reproduce this
issue with the simplest reproducer possible and a much more detailed
explanation.

Please note: I will be out of the office until Jan 9 so my responses
will be limited until then.

Just to follow up on this for anyone who missed the other thread,
Stanislav proposed a patch which _might_ fix the issue being hit
here.

Please see [1], try that patch, and report back if that patch fixes
the issue.

Thanks.

Note that it might help only if xsk is using busy-polling. Not sure
that's the case, it's relatively obscure feature :-)

I believe I have reproduced Alex' issue using the methodology below and 
your patch fixes it for me.

The experiment uses a server (tilly01) with mlx5 and a client (tilly02). 
In the problem case, the 'response' packet gets stuck, but the next 
'request' packets triggers both the stuck and the regular responses. The 
pattern can also be seen in the tcpdump output at the client. Note that 
the response packet is not a valid packet (only MAC addresses swapped, 
not IP addresses), but tcpdump shows it regardless.

Thanks,
Martin
