Well, here's the output from the `ip link` cmd: 3: eth3: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 xdp qdisc mq state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000 link/ether 52:54:fc:47:e2:d3 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff prog/xdp id 1 tag 1cd982ef22273bda jited 4: eth2: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 xdp qdisc mq state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000 link/ether 52:54:55:d3:50:ee brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff prog/xdp id 1 tag 1cd982ef22273bda jited As you can see, there's the XDP program ID 1 executing on them. However, there's definitely something interesting happening when bpf_fib_lookup() returns BPF_FIB_LKUP_RET_NO_NEIGH, for which my XDP program just returns XDP_PASS while the following line gets printed in kern.log: eth3: bad gso: type: 164, size: 256 No idea what's wrong here. Also, when bpf_fib_lookup() returns BPF_FIB_LKUP_RET_SUCCESS, for which my XDP program executes bpf_redirect_map(&dev_map, fib_params.ifindex, 0), the following gets printed in /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_pipe: xdp_redirect_map_err: prog_id=1 action=REDIRECT ifindex=3 to_ifindex=0 err=-14 map_id=0 map_index=4 I feel this last one to be somewhat related to the comment here https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v4.18.10/source/samples/bpf/xdp_fwd_kern.c#L107. Is it correct? If so, what does this precisely mean? Is there any way to get around with this? Because what I'm doing is simply using the BPF_MAP_TYPE_DEVMAP with the bpf_redirect_map() helper to forward packets between "XDP ports".
