I have tested it with a number of combinations of v4 over v6 and v6 over v4 for VXLANs. With GRE I have only been able to test with v4 as the base as it appears that offloads are currently not supported for GRE over IPv6. With this patch set I resolved a number of issues and I am now able to perform TSO for any of them as long as the outer UDP checksum is 0. It should also now be supported if the outer checksum is enabled in the case of the XL722, though I cannot test it. One additional item I have identified as an issue for the v2 patchset is the fact that Rx checksums were not working for IPv6 based tunnels due to the fact that the ports were not being registered. From what I can tell there was no reason for this so I have enabled IPv6 tunnels to register their port numbers so that they can take full advantage of Rx offloads. As far as testing this patch set I would recommend setting up a series of tunnels between two endpointers. For VXLAN both v4 and v6 based tunnels can be used, with and without checksums. For GRE a v4 tunnel can be used with and without checksum. --- Alexander Duyck (15): i40e/i40evf: Drop outer checksum offload that was not requested i40e/i40evf: Use u64 values instead of casting them in TSO function i40e/i40evf: Factor out L4 header and checksum from L3 bits in TSO path i40e/i40evf: Consolidate all header changes into TSO function i40e/i40evf: Replace header pointers with unions of pointers in Tx checksum path i40e/i40evf: Add support for IPv4 encapsulated in IPv6 i40e/i40evf: Handle IPv6 extension headers in checksum offload i40e/i40evf: Do not write to descriptor unless we complete i40e/i40evf: Add exception handling for Tx checksum i40e/i40evf: Clean-up Rx packet checksum handling i40e/i40evf: Enable support for SKB_GSO_UDP_TUNNEL_CSUM i40e: Fix ATR in relation to tunnels i40e: Do not drop support for IPv6 VXLAN or GENEVE tunnels i40e: Update feature flags to reflect newly enabled features i40evf: Update feature flags to reflect newly enabled features drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e/i40e_main.c | 30 +- drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e/i40e_txrx.c | 378 ++++++++++++----------- drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40e/i40e_txrx.h | 1 drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40evf/i40e_txrx.c | 358 ++++++++++++---------- drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40evf/i40e_txrx.h | 1 drivers/net/ethernet/intel/i40evf/i40evf_main.c | 23 + 6 files changed, 422 insertions(+), 369 deletions(-) --
