Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/1 v2] skbuff: Extend gso_type to unsigned int
Date: Sat, 8 Apr 2017 20:36:23 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1491676584-22421-1-git-send-email-steffen.klassert@secunet.com> (raw)
We need a GSO type for IPsec ESP to be able to integrate the IPsec
hardware offloading infrastructure. Unfortunately, all gso_type flags
are currently in use. This change extends gso_type from 'unsigned short'
to 'unsigned int'.
Changes from v1:
- Place the remaining two byte hole in front, suggested by
Eric Dumazet.
- Skipping the memset of the two byte hole is unnecessary
as it does not matter if we memset two or four bytes more,
suggested by Alexander Duyck.
