When a device is stacked like (team, bonding, failsafe or netvsc) the
XDP generic program for the parent device is not called.  In these
cases, the rx handler changes skb->dev to its own in the receive
handler, and returns RX_HANDLER_ANOTHER.  Fix this by calling
do_xdp_generic if necessary before starting another round.

Review of all the places RX_HANDLER_ANOTHER is returned
show that the current devices do correctly change skb->dev.

There was an older patch that got abandoned that did the
same thing, this is just a rewrite.

I'm always scarred of changes like this. The history tells us that this
codepaths are very fragile. It took us non-trivial efford to fix bonding
here, not to mention vlans (that was pain).


I may miss something, did you see any issue for bonding with this patch?



The reason for troubles was often fact that different flows were treated
differently (vlan accel/non-accel).


Do you mean we need do something similar after vlan_do_receive() returns true?


This patch calls do_xdp_generic for master device in different point in
the receive patch comparing to lower device. Would it be possible to
unify this? E.g. by moving do_xdp_generice() call from
netif_rx_internal()/netif_receive_skb_internal() here,
to the beginning of __netif_receive_skb_core()?


Probably just after another_round label. And this means generic XDP is done after RPS which could be even better.

Thanks
