Subject: [PATCH net-next v3 RESEND 1/4] octeon_ep: add padding for small packets
Date: Tue, 14 Nov 2023 05:45:32 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20231114134535.2455051-2-srasheed@marvell.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20231114134535.2455051-1-srasheed@marvell.com>

Pad small packets to ETH_ZLEN before transmit, as hardware
cannot pad and requires software padding to ensure
minimum ethernet frame length.

Signed-off-by: Shinas Rasheed <srasheed@marvell.com>
