Subject: [PATCH net-next] xen-netfront: convert to GRO API
Date: Mon, 30 Sep 2013 13:46:34 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1380545194-13419-1-git-send-email-wei.liu2@citrix.com> (raw)

Anirban was seeing netfront received MTU size packets, which downgraded
throughput. The following patch makes netfront use GRO API which
improves throughput for that case.
