> We do header check twice for a dodgy packet. One is done before > macvlan_start_xmit(), another is done before lower device's > ndo_start_xmit(). The first one seems redundant so this patch tries to > delay header check until a packet reaches its lower device (or macvtap) > through always enabling NETIF_F_GSO_ROBUST for macvlan device. > > Cc: Patrick McHardy <ka...@trash.net> > Signed-off-by: Jason Wang <jasow...@redhat.com> Hmmm, it's the idea that if we have a dodgy packet, we want to notice that as early as possible in the packet processing path? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
