From f17f5c91ae3bfeb5cfc37fa132a5fdfceb8927be Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Herbert Xu Date: Wed, 14 Jan 2009 14:36:12 -0800 Subject: gro: Check for GSO packets and packets with frag_list As GRO cannot be applied to packets with frag_list we need to make sure that we reject such packets if they are fed to us, e.g., through a tunnel device. Also there is no point in applying GRO on GSO packets so they too should be rejected. This allows GRO to be used in virtio-net which may produce GSO packets directly but may still benefit from GRO if the other end of it doesn't support GSO.

This is OK when the skb is reused because we set nr_frags to zero in that case. However, for the case where the skb is freed through kfree_skb, we didn't clear nr_frags which causes the page to be freed prematurely. This is fixed by moving the skb resetting into skb_gro_receive.

This is to be used by drivers that need to tie several hardware interfaces to a single NAPI poll scheduler due to HW limitations. It also updates the ibm_newemac driver to use that, this fixing the oops on 2.6.29 due to passing NULL as "dev" to netif_napi_add() Symbol is exported GPL only a I don't think we want binary drivers doing that sort of acrobatics (if we want them at all).
