Lam, Tiago June 28, 2018, 3:41 p.m. UTC
When a dp_packet is from a DPDK source, and it contains multi-segment
mbufs, the data_len is not equal to the packet size, pkt_len. Instead,
the data_len of each mbuf in the chain should be considered while
distributing the new (provided) size.

To account for the above dp_packet_set_size() has been changed so that,
in the multi-segment mbufs case, only the data_len on the last mbuf of
the chain and the total size of the packet, pkt_len, are changed. The
data_len on the intermediate mbufs preceeding the last mbuf is not
changed by dp_packet_set_size(). Furthermore, in some cases
dp_packet_set_size() may be used to set a smaller size than the current
packet size, thus effectively trimming the end of the packet. In the
multi-segment mbufs case this may lead to lingering mbufs that may need
freeing.

__dp_packet_set_data() now also updates an mbufs' data_len after setting
the data offset. This is so that both fields are always in sync for each
mbuf in a chain.

Guess we do not need the extra variable, we can just do b->mbuf.pkt_len 
etc as below. Looks like a left over from the previous revision?

In the increase packet size case we can end up with an b->mbuf.pkt_len < 
v, maybe we should assert on this?

What if the data offset moves to the second buffer? This would probably 
never happen as all APIs assume a single address space (and they seem to 
calculate the offset like this), but an assert might help to avoid 
problems in the future.

Good point, I got rid of it for v2.

Yeah, it can happen if 'v' is bigger than the available tailroom. An
assertion sounds good in this case since dp_packet_set_size() relies on
the caller making sure there is enough space for performing the
operation (like allocating space themselves if not enough space is
available).

I'll use one here as well then, for the same reasons pointed out above.
