Thank you. I have identified a problem. The tx_descs array was created within xsk's pool. When xsk is freed, the pool and tx_descs are also freed. Howerver, some descs may remain in the virtqueue'queue, which could lead to a use-after-free scenario. Currently, I do not have an idea to solve this concurrency problem and believe this scenario may not be appropriate for reusing the ptr_ring. Thanks > > > > > > > > Cheers, > > > > > > Paolo > >
