SubjectRe: [Intel-wired-lan] [PATCH net v3] ixgbe: Panic during XDP_TX with > 64 CPUs
From
Dear John,


Thank you for your patch.

I’d recommend, to use a statement in the git commit message/summary by
adding a verb (in imperative mood). Maybe:

Fix panic during XDP_TX with > 64 CPUs

I think it’s more common to write it like:

In commit 4fe815850bdc (ixgbe: let the xdpdrv work with more than 64 cpus) …

Even shorter

Commit 4fe815850bdc (ixgbe: let the xdpdrv work with more than 64 cpus)
adds support to allow XDP programs …

Please add, that you have UBSAN enabled, or does it happen without?

If you do not it yet, `scripts/decode_stacktrace.sh` helps decoding
these traces.

… with more than 64 CPUs.
