By "current version", you mean the patch I sent[0], right? If so, that was deliberate: the stack limits the maximum data_meta size to XDP_PACKET_HEADROOM - sizeof(struct xdp_frame), so there's no reason not to do the same for bpf_prog_run(). And some chance that diverging here will end up surfacing other bugs down the line. -Toke [0] https://lore.kernel.org/r/[email protected]
