Hi Alex,
Can you share the testing commands of running vxlan over IPv6 and what
exactly didn't work for you ?
we would like to test this in house and understand what went wrong,
theoretically there shouldn't be a difference between IPv6/IPv4 outer
checksum offloading in ConnectX-3.
Anyway, I suspect it might be related to a driver bug most likely in
get_real_size function @en_tx.c
specifically in : *lso_header_size = (skb_inner_transport_header(skb) -
skb->data) + inner_tcp_hdrlen(skb);
will check this and get back to you.
for the mlx5 patches I will also go through them later today.

Dejavu, didn't you fix this already in harmonize_features, in
i.e, it is enough to do here:

basically this is a bug fix, I don't know why the original author
assumed it will be ipv4 !
