Hello, A TBF parent peeks a DualPI2 child packet, causing DualPI2 to subtract its truesize while parking it in gso_skb. Reducing the DualPI2 memory limit drains the parked skb and subtracts its truesize again, wrapping the u32 memory_used counter.

Run poc.c as a static /init in the attached minimal initramfs inside disposable QEMU; the test creates a user/network namespace and reports the counter through rtnetlink. Impact and prerequisites: After the rejected/in-progress accounting state wraps, packets continue to fail with ENOBUFS even after restoring the original memory limit; replacing the qdisc is required. The test is reachable by a caller with CAP_NET_ADMIN in a user-created network namespace and is a namespace-local availability issue. Validation: Two exact-revision fresh boots reproduced the same counter wrap and persistent enqueue failures; no-drain and close accounting controls passed. Thanks, shaos
