When the length of a GSO packet in the tbf qdisc is larger than the burst size configured the packet will be segmented by the tbf_segment function. Whenever this function is used to enqueue SKBs, the backlog statistic of the tbf is not increased correctly. This can lead to underflows of the 'backlog' byte-statistic value when these packets are dequeued from tbf. Reproduce the bug: Ensure that the sender machine has GSO enabled. Configured the tbf on the outgoing interface of the machine as follows (burstsize = 1 MTU): $ tc qdisc add dev <oif> root handle 1: tbf rate 50Mbit burst 1514 latency 50ms Send bulk TCP traffic out via this interface, e.g., by running an iPerf3 client on this machine. Check the qdisc statistics: $ tc -s qdisc show dev <oif> The 'backlog' byte-statistic has incorrect values while traffic is transferred, e.g., high values due to u32 underflows. When the transfer is stopped, the value is != 0, which should never happen. This patch fixes this bug by updating the statistics correctly, even if single SKBs of a GSO SKB cannot be enqueued.
