Subject: [PATCH 4/4 net-next] ibmvnic: Handle TSO backing device errata
Date: Fri, 9 Mar 2018 13:23:57 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1520623437-5118-5-git-send-email-tlfalcon@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1520623437-5118-1-git-send-email-tlfalcon@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
TSO packets with one segment or with an MSS less than 224 can
cause errors on some backing devices, so disable GSO in those cases.
