[PATCH] vsock/virtio: fix packet delivery to tap device
From: Marco Pinna
Date: Mon Mar 25 2024 - 13:54:40 EST
Commit 82dfb540aeb2 ("VSOCK: Add virtio vsock vsockmon hooks") added
virtio_transport_deliver_tap_pkt() for handing packets to the
vsockmon device. However, in virtio_transport_send_pkt_work(),
the function is called before actually sending the packet (i.e.
before placing it in the virtqueue with virtqueue_add_sgs() and checking
whether it returned successfully). This may cause timing issues since
the sending of the packet may fail, causing it to be re-queued
(possibly multiple times), while the tap device would show the
packet being sent correctly.
Move virtio_transport_deliver_tap_pkt() after calling virtqueue_add_sgs()
and making sure it returned successfully.
