There are rx_ring_num queues. Each queue will load xdp prog. So
bpf_prog_add() should add rx_ring_num to ref_cnt.

Your analysis looks incorrect to me. Please elaborate in more detail why
you think current code is buggy ...
Call path is dev_change_xdp_fd(), which does bpf_prog_get_type() on the
fd. This already takes a ref and only drops it in case of error. Thus
in mlx4_xdp_set(), you only need priv->rx_ring_num - 1 refs for the rest
of the rings, so that dropping refs from old_prog makes sure we release
it again. Looks correct to me (maybe a comment would have helped there).

Yes, you are correct. My patch is incorrect. It is not a bug.

I thought mlx4's code is incorrect because in mlx5's driver, function
mlx5e_xdp_set() calls a pair of bpf_prog_add/put, the number of add and
put to the refs are same. I didn't notice that one "add" has been called in its
calller. So, it seems that mlx5's code is incorrect, right?

Yep, I think the two attached patches are needed.
The other thing I noticed in mlx5e_create_rq() is that it calls
bpf_prog_add(rq->xdp_prog, 1) without actually checking for errors.

Ahh right, needs an empty variant for !CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL. I'll fix that up
before sending an official patch.

Why not just move the above bpf_prog_add to be below the try_alloc?
Nobody needs those references until all of the resources have been
allocated, and then we can remove the need for bpf_prog_add_undo.

There is also another use of bpf_prog_add down below, which does not
check the error return. Same in mlx5e_create_rq.

Right, looked into this and the convention is to call mlx4_en_try_alloc_resources()
plus mlx4_en_safe_replace_resources(), which must always succeed (currently).
Seems rather complex to go this route instead; bpf_prog_add_undo() or *_sub()
[however we name it] is safe and straight forward, since we're guaranteed to
have one reference already.

Yeah, saw that, too. These two unchecked bpf_prog_add() would be another
issue to fix on top of this, ohh well.
For net-next, I'll just add a __must_check to these functions, so we can
avoid such issues in future and let the compiler complain early enough
instead.
