Subject: [PATCH v3 2/2] bnx2x: disable GSO where gso_size is too big for hardware
Date: Tue, 30 Jan 2018 12:14:47 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180130011447.24916-3-dja@axtens.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180130011447.24916-1-dja@axtens.net>

If a bnx2x card is passed a GSO packet with a gso_size larger than
~9700 bytes, it will cause a firmware error that will bring the card
down:

bnx2x: [bnx2x_attn_int_deasserted3:4323(enP24p1s0f0)]MC assert!
bnx2x: [bnx2x_mc_assert:720(enP24p1s0f0)]XSTORM_ASSERT_LIST_INDEX 0x2
bnx2x: [bnx2x_mc_assert:736(enP24p1s0f0)]XSTORM_ASSERT_INDEX 0x0 = 0x00000000 0x25e43e47 0x00463e01 0x00010052
bnx2x: [bnx2x_mc_assert:750(enP24p1s0f0)]Chip Revision: everest3, FW Version: 7_13_1
... (dump of values continues) ...

Detect when the mac length of a GSO packet is greater than the maximum
packet size (9700 bytes) and disable GSO.

v3: use skb_gso_validate_mac_len to get the actual size, to allow
    jumbo frames to work.

I don't have local access to a bnx2x card and sending this off to the
user who does would add about a month of round-trip time, so this
particular spin is build-tested only. (Earlier spins were tested on
real hardware.)
