Subject: [PATCH net] bnx2x: Fix bridged GSO for 57710/57711 chips
Date: Mon, 3 Jun 2013 15:59:57 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1370264397-27324-1-git-send-email-yuvalmin@broadcom.com> (raw)

It was recently found out that GSO on 57710/57711 was broken, due to packets
being sent without a valid IP checksum. 

Commit 057cf65 "bnx2x: Fix GSO for 57710/57711 chips" partially fixed this
issue, but failed to set the correct IP checksum when receiving GSO packets
via bridges, as such packets enter bnx2x_tx_split() and the FW flags needed
to calculate IP checksum were erroneously set in the incorrect
buffer descriptor.

This patch re-enables GSO in said scenario for 57710/57711 chips.
