Subject: [PATCH net-next] mlx4_en: dont change mac_header on xmit
Date: Sat, 25 Feb 2012 11:51:05 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1330167065.2462.53.camel@edumazet-laptop> (raw)
A driver xmit function is not allowed to change skb without special
care.
mlx4_en_xmit() should not call skb_reset_mac_header() and instead should
use skb->data to access ethernet header.
This removes a dumb test : if (ethh && ethh->h_dest)
Also remove this slow mlx4_en_mac_to_u64() call, we can use
get_unaligned() to get faster code.
