Doesn't macvtap need to call skb_warn_if_lro() too like bridge and
openvswitch? Something like...
diff --git a/drivers/net/macvtap.c b/drivers/net/macvtap.c
index b181dfb..b2c6227 100644
--- a/drivers/net/macvtap.c
+++ b/drivers/net/macvtap.c
@@ -253,6 +253,9 @@ static int macvtap_forward(struct net_device *dev,
struct sk_buff *skb)
if (!q)
goto drop;
+ if (unlikely(skb_warn_if_lro(skb)))
+ goto drop;
+
if (skb_queue_len(&q->sk.sk_receive_queue) >= dev->tx_queue_len)
goto drop;
I am not saying these drivers don't need to fix, I am just saying if we
need to fix LRO case.
Thanks.
