Re: Packets randomly dropped with virtio-net with xdp loaded in native mode

I'm also getting the same issues with a 6 core baremetal server.

if I load the XDP in native mode, it will drop packets, if it is in
generic mode, it will not drop packets.

However if I only create 1 xsk socket instead of 1 per core, it
doesn't drop packets in native mode. The strange thing is that I get
dropped packets even when I don't send anything to xsk sockets in my
xdp filter.

I try to make xsk sockets with non-shared umem for each cpu core.

for (int queue_number=0; i< get_nprocs_conf(); queue_number++)
      xsks[queue_number] = xsk_configure(NULL, queue_number);

....
xsk_socket__create(&xsk->xsk, opt_if, queue_number, umem->umem, rxr, txr, &cfg);

So if I just do this instead, it doesn't drop any packets in native mode.

xsks[0] = xsk_configure(NULL, 0);
xsk_socket__create(&xsk->xsk, opt_if, 0, umem->umem, rxr, txr, &cfg);


Any tips on how to fix this?
