Subject: [PATCH] tg3: Work around HW/FW limitations with vlan encapsulated frames
Date: Thu, 18 Sep 2014 10:31:17 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1411050677-28147-1-git-send-email-vyasevic@redhat.com> (raw)
TG3 appears to have an issue performing TSO and checksum offloading
correclty when the frame has been vlan encapsulated (non-accelrated).
In these cases, tcp checksum is not correctly updated.
This patch attempts to work around this issue. After the patch,
802.1ad vlans start working correctly over tg3 devices.
