[dpdk-dev] Do we need the refcnt set to zero again?

Looking that the code below does the rte_mbuf_refcnt_set(m,0) need to be present?
static inline struct rte_mbuf* __attribute__((always_inline))
__rte_pktmbuf_prefree_seg(struct rte_mbuf *m)
{
__rte_mbuf_sanity_check(m, 0);
if (likely (rte_mbuf_refcnt_read(m) == 1) ||
likely (rte_mbuf_refcnt_update(m, -1) == 0)) {
rte_mbuf_refcnt_set(m, 0);
/* if this is an indirect mbuf, then
* - detach mbuf
* - free attached mbuf segment
*/
if (RTE_MBUF_INDIRECT(m)) {
struct rte_mbuf *md = RTE_MBUF_FROM_BADDR(m->buf_addr);
rte_pktmbuf_detach(m);
if (rte_mbuf_refcnt_update(md, -1) == 0)
__rte_mbuf_raw_free(md);
}
return(m);
}
return (NULL);
}
It seems like the code could be this or did I miss a race-condition?
static inline struct rte_mbuf* __attribute__((always_inline))
__rte_pktmbuf_prefree_seg(struct rte_mbuf *m)
{
__rte_mbuf_sanity_check(m, 0);
/* The sanity check above should have checked for refcnt being zero */
if ( likely (rte_mbuf_refcnt_update(m, -1) == 0 ) {
/* if this is an indirect mbuf, then
* - detach mbuf
* - free attached mbuf segment
*/
if (RTE_MBUF_INDIRECT(m)) {
struct rte_mbuf *md = RTE_MBUF_FROM_BADDR(m->buf_addr);
rte_pktmbuf_detach(m);
if (rte_mbuf_refcnt_update(md, -1) == 0)
__rte_mbuf_raw_free(md);
}
return(m);
}
return (NULL);
}
