Subject: [PATCH net] vmxnet3: fix BUG_ON in vmxnet3_get_hdr_len() for Geneve packets
Date: Tue, 7 Jul 2026 09:52:48 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260707165248.1859188-1-harshaka.narayana@broadcom.com> (raw)
When rcd->tcp is set based on the inner TCP header of a
Geneve-encapsulated packet that exceeds MTU and is non-LRO, the driver
hits BUG_ON(hdr.ipv4->protocol != IPPROTO_TCP) in vmxnet3_get_hdr_len()
because the outer IPv4 protocol is UDP (Geneve), not TCP.
Convert this BUG_ON to return 0, letting the caller's existing hlen == 0
check skip the LRO path gracefully. Also convert the preceding
BUG_ON(gdesc->rcd.tcp == 0) assertion to return 0 defensively.
Fixes: 45dac1d6ea04 ("vmxnet3: Changes for vmxnet3 adapter version 2 (fwd)")
