Date: Thu, 08 Oct 2020 21:45:04 -0700 From: John Fastabend <john.fastabend@...il.com> To: john.fastabend@...il.com, alexei.starovoitov@...il.com, daniel@...earbox.net Cc: netdev@...r.kernel.org, bpf@...r.kernel.org, jakub@...udflare.com, lmb@...udflare.com Subject: [bpf-next PATCH 5/6] bpf, sockmap: Remove skb_orphan and let normal skb_kfree do cleanup Calling skb_orphan() is unnecessary in the strp rcv handler because the skb is from a skb_clone() in __strp_recv. So it never has a destructor or a sk assigned. Plus its confusing to read because it might hint to the reader that the skb could have an sk assigned which is not true. Even if we did have an sk assigned it would be cleaner to simply wait for the upcoming kfree_skb(). Additionally, move the comment about strparser clone up so its closer to the logic it is describing and add to it so that it is more complete.
