In send_atomic_ack function, it is not necessary make a skb_clone. To gain better performance(high throughput and low latency), this skb_clone is removed. The following tests are made. server client --------- --------- |1.1.1.1|<----rxe-channel--->|1.1.1.2| --------- --------- On server: rping -s -a 1.1.1.1 -v -C 1000 -S 512 On client: rping -c -a 1.1.1.1 -v -C 1000 -S 512 The kernel config CONFIG_DEBUG_KMEMLEAK is enabled on both server and client. This test runs for several hours. There is no memory leak and the whole system can work well.
