Hi Jiayu,
Can you please suggest if the patch can be used ? When timestamps are
disabled we would unnecessarily indulge pure TCP ack packets in the GRO
layer. Or can we have a fix where if the TCP timestamp option is not
present in the packet, do not process the packet, return immediately ?
Thanks,
Param
