You could check running a kernel with QUIC enabled and geneve, vxlan, FOU and xfrm disabled. > + > + refcount_set(&us->refcnt, 1); > + us->sk = sock->sk; > + memcpy(&us->addr, a, sizeof(*a)); > + us->bind_ifindex = sk->sk_bound_dev_if; > + > + head = quic_udp_sock_head(net, ntohs(a->v4.sin_port)); > + hlist_add_head(&us->node, &head->head); > + INIT_WORK(&us->work, quic_udp_sock_put_work); Is unclear to me if quick udp socket lookup be done locklessy with future series? /P
