Maciej Fijalkowski says: ==================== Cameron reported [0] that on fresh bpf-next he could not run multiple xdpsock instances in Tx-only mode on single network interface with i40e driver. Turns out that Maxim's series [1] which was adding RCU protection around ndo_xsk_wakeup added check against the __I40E_CONFIG_BUSY being set on pf->state within i40e_xsk_wakeup() - if it's set, return -ENETDOWN. Since this bit is set per PF when UMEM is being enabled/disabled, the situation Cameron stumbled upon was that when he launched second xdpsock instance, second UMEM was being registered, hence set __I40E_CONFIG_BUSY which is now observed by first xdpsock and therefore xdpsock's kick_tx() gets -ENETDOWN as errno. -ENETDOWN currently is not allowed in kick_tx(), so we were exiting the first application. Such exit means also XDP program being unloaded and its dedicated resources, which caused an -ENXIO being return in the second xdpsock instance. Let's fix the issue from both sides - protect ourselves from future xdpsock crashes by allowing for -ENETDOWN errno being set in kick_tx() (patch 3) and from driver side, return -EAGAIN for the case where PF is busy (patch 1). Remove also doubled variable from xdpsock_user.c (patch 2). Note that ixgbe seems not to be affected since UMEM registration sets the busy/disable bit per ring, not per PF.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
