Subject: [PATCH net-next v5 04/12] net/ipv6: Remove jumbo_remove step from TX path
Date: Thu, 5 Feb 2026 15:39:17 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260205133925.526371-5-alice.kernel@fastmail.im> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260205133925.526371-1-alice.kernel@fastmail.im>
From: Alice Mikityanska <alice@isovalent.com>
Now that the kernel doesn't insert HBH for BIG TCP IPv6 packets, remove
unnecessary steps from the GSO TX path, that used to check and remove
HBH.
