Subject: [PATCH v2 net-next] net: vxlan: use custom ndo_change_mtu handler
Date: Tue, 17 Dec 2013 21:37:40 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1387312660-3467-1-git-send-email-dborkman@redhat.com> (raw)
When adding a new vxlan device to an "underlying carrier" (here:
dst->remote_ifindex), the MTU size assigned to the vxlan device
is the MTU at setup time of the carrier - needed headroom, when
adding a vxlan device w/o explicit carrier, then it defaults
to 1500.
In case of an explicit carrier that supports jumbo frames, we
currently cannot change vxlan MTU via ip(8) to > 1500 in
post-setup time, as vxlan driver uses eth_change_mtu() as default
method for manually setting MTU.
Hence, use a custom implementation that only falls back to
eth_change_mtu() in case we didn't use a dev parameter on device
setup time, and otherwise allow a max MTU setting of the carrier
incl. adjustment for headroom.
