[PATCH v2 net-next 02/15] net/sched: taprio: continue with other TXQs if one dequeue() failed

From: Vladimir Oltean
Date: Tue Feb 07 2023 - 08:55:32 EST


This changes the handling of an unlikely condition to not stop dequeuing
if taprio failed to dequeue the peeked skb in taprio_dequeue().

I've no idea when this can happen, but the only side effect seems to be
that the atomic_sub_return() call right above will have consumed some
budget. This isn't a big deal, since either that made us remain without
any budget (and therefore, we'd exit on the next peeked skb anyway), or
we could send some packets from other TXQs.

I'm making this change because in a future patch I'll be refactoring the
dequeue procedure to simplify it, and this corner case will have to go
away.
