Thanks a lot for fixing the bug.

Can we just move the statement "stats->rx_bytes += skb->len;" to
before free skb?
For example,

skb_put(skb, pkg_len - 4); /* Minus FCS */
skb->ip_summed = CHECKSUM_NONE;
skb->protocol = eth_type_trans(skb, comm->ndev[port]);
stats->rx_packets++;
stats->rx_bytes += skb->len;
netif_receive_skb(skb);

/* Allocate a new skb for receiving. */
new_skb = netdev_alloc_skb(NULL, comm->rx_desc_buff_size);

Best regards,
Wells
