Subject: [PATCH 6.1.y 3/4] ipv6: use dst6_mtu() instead of dst_mtu()
Date: Tue, 1 Sep 2026 15:28:37 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260901192838.1439895-3-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260901192838.1439895-1-sashal@kernel.org>
From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>
[ Upstream commit b40f0130a23b6bab8b359e158a40af81f11f14be ]
When we expect an IPv6 dst, use dst6_mtu() instead of dst_mtu()
to save some code space.
Due to current dst6_mtu() implementation, only convert
users in IPv6 stack.
