Bug ID: 347
Summary: TAPPMD frees buffers it fails to send
Product: DPDK
Version: 19.08
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: Normal
Component: ethdev
Assignee: dev at dpdk.org
Reporter: harry.walsh at gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
static uint16_t
pmd_tx_burst(void *queue, struct rte_mbuf **bufs, uint16_t nb_pkts)
.
.
tap_write_mbufs(txq, num_mbufs, mbuf,
&num_packets, &num_tx_bytes);
num_tx++;
/* free original mbuf */
rte_pktmbuf_free(mbuf_in);
.
.
If tap_write_mbufs fails to send packets ( i.e. num_packets < num_mbufs )
In my situation I'm sending exactly one packet and it fails to send,
num_packets is passed out as zero, pmd_tx_burst frees the original buffer and
returns 1 back.
I then free the buffer because tx_burst returned zero, and this returns in a
double free.
