When napi_tx is enabled, virtnet_poll_cleantx() called free_old_xmit_skbs() even for xdp send queue. This is bogus since the queue has xdp_frames, not sk_buffs, thus mangled device tx bytes counters because skb->len is meaningless value, and even triggered oops due to general protection fault on freeing them. Since xdp send queues do not aquire locks, old xdp_frames should be freed only in virtnet_xdp_xmit(), so just skip free_old_xmit_skbs() for xdp send queues. Similarly virtnet_poll_tx() called free_old_xmit_skbs(). This NAPI handler is called even without calling start_xmit() because cb for tx is by default enabled. Once the handler is called, it enabled the cb again, and then the handler would be called again. We don't need this handler for XDP, so don't enable cb as well as not calling free_old_xmit_skbs(). Also, we need to disable tx NAPI when disabling XDP, so virtnet_poll_tx() can safely access curr_queue_pairs and xdp_queue_pairs, which are not atomically updated while disabling XDP. Fixes: |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
