This is sufficient for the immediate issue of fixing the patch below, but I think there's another issue that also needs fixing here. TSO requires the hardware to support checksum offload, and there is a comment in the driver: /* DWMAC IPs can be synthesized to support tx coe only for a few tx * queues. In that case, checksum offloading for those queues that don't * support tx coe needs to fallback to software checksum calculation. * * Packets that won't trigger the COE e.g. most DSA-tagged packets will * also have to be checksummed in software. */ So, it seems at the very least we need to add a check (in a subsequent patch) for priv->plat->tx_queues_cfg[queue].coe_unsupported to stmmac_channel_tso_permitted(). I'm also wondering about the stmmac_has_ip_ethertype() thing, which checks whether the skb can be checksummed by the hardware, and how that interacts with TSO, and whether that's yet another hole that needs plugging. -- RMK's Patch system: https://www.armlinux.org.uk/developer/patches/ FTTP is here! 80Mbps down 10Mbps up.
