Subject: [PATCH 4/5] tg3: Add TSO workaround using GSO
Date: Thu, 29 Jun 2006 18:29:27 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1151630967.21798.20.camel@rh4> (raw)
Use GSO to workaround a rare TSO bug on some chips. This hardware
bug may be triggered when the TSO header size is greater than 80
bytes. When this condition is detected in a TSO packet, the driver
will use GSO to segment the packet to workaround the hardware bug.
Thanks to Juergen Kreileder <jk@blackdown.de> for reporting the
problem and collecting traces to help debug the problem.
And thanks to Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> for providing
the GSO mechanism that happens to be the perfect workaround for this
problem.
