When kernel version change into 5.18 from 5.17, 'netif_rx_ni' is discard.
It is replaced by 'netif_rx' and this API is also supported in the
version below 5.18.
This patch fixed it.

Hi Connor,
There is already a patch for this [1], can you test & ack that instead
please?
Same for Mingli's patch [2], @Mingli, can you please test and ack the
[1] instead?
[1] kni: update kernel API to receive packets

Why don't you use new helper functions instead? I can see not using
helper function is causing other problem as well [3].

I think the approach in [1] is the right one. Any comments?

I don't understand why the change is needed and the patch description
does not shed any light on it.

When compile, it will report a warning, because it claims that the
parameter types must be the same.
void *memcpy(void *destin, void *source, unsigned n);
so this is what I am doing.

I think it is a separate story vs netif_rx_ni(). So, it should not be in
the same patch. IMHO, it is closer to [1]

Am I missing something?

There are two build errors because of kernel side changes.
- netif_rx_ni(). Following patch seems correct fix with small change
requests:
https://patchwork.dpdk.org/project/dpdk/patch/20220525102641.20982-1-jslaby@suse.cz/
- 'net_dev->dev_addr' being const, following patch is in correct direction:
