[PATCH net v2] openvswitch: disable LRO
Currently, openvswitch tries to disable LRO from the user space. This does not work correctly when the device added is a vlan interface, though. Instead of dealing with possibly complex stacked cross name space relations in the user space, do the same as bridging does and call dev_disable_lro in the kernel. Signed-off-by: Jiri Benc jb...@redhat.com --- v1-v2: Disable LRO unconditionally. If the feature that leaves LRO enabled is implemented in the future in ovs user space, the conditional disablement can be implemented in the kernel easily. There won't be any problem even if such new ovs user space is run with older kernels, enabling LRO is just an optimization. --- net/openvswitch/vport-netdev.c | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) diff --git a/net/openvswitch/vport-netdev.c b/net/openvswitch/vport-netdev.c index 4776282c6417..33e6d6e2908f 100644 --- a/net/openvswitch/vport-netdev.c +++ b/net/openvswitch/vport-netdev.c @@ -125,6 +125,7 @@ static struct vport *netdev_create(const struct vport_parms *parms) if (err) goto error_master_upper_dev_unlink; + dev_disable_lro(netdev_vport-dev); dev_set_promiscuity(netdev_vport-dev, 1); netdev_vport-dev-priv_flags |= IFF_OVS_DATAPATH; rtnl_unlock(); -- 1.8.3.1 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line unsubscribe netdev in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
