I think that here is a bug: some frames could be missed if budget < 4.
I was able to reproduce it by sending 100000x 60 B frames with minimal IPG
(672 ns between starts of frames) on 1Gbit/s. Always 1026 frames were not sent
and were missing a AF_XDP competition. Interesting was that then even when I sent more
frames for hours it still was 1026 frames not sent and missing competition.
Bug seems to be fixed when I change this line to:
while (budget >= 4 && xsk_tx_peek_desc(pool, &xdp_desc)) {
Do you think this is a good fix?
I think this bug is also in original code base, but I was only able to reproduce
it with launch time.
