Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Disable forwarding of LRO skbs
Date: Wed, 30 Apr 2008 22:48:46 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080430214845.GC14219@solarflare.com> (raw)

Large Receive Offload (LRO) destroys packet headers that should be
preserved when forwarding.  Currently it also triggers a BUG() or WARN()
in skb_gso_segment().  We should disable it wherever forwarding is
enabled, and discard LRO skbs with a warning if it is turned back on.

Ben.
