Subject: [PATCH net-next v2 07/14] net: stmmac: move TSO VLAN tag insertion to core code
Date: Wed, 01 Apr 2026 08:21:44 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <E1w7ptY-0000000EatO-42Qv@rmk-PC.armlinux.org.uk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <aczHVF04LIGq_lYO@shell.armlinux.org.uk>
stmmac_tso_xmit() checks whether the skbuff is trying to offload
vlan tag insertion to hardware, which from the comment in the code
appears to be buggy when the TSO feature is used.
Rather than stmmac_tso_xmit() inserting the VLAN tag, handle this
in stmmac_features_check() which will then use core net code to
handle this. See net/core/dev.c::validate_xmit_skb()
