This patch incorporate the review comments by Jeff Garzik.\n2. Renamed USO as UFO (UDP Fragmentation Offload)\n3. udp sendfile support with UFO\n\nThis patches uses scatter-gather feature of skb to generate large UDP\ndatagram. Below is a \"how-to\" on changes required in network device\ndriver to use the UFO interface.\n\nUDP Fragmentation Offload (UFO) Interface:\n-------------------------------------------\nUFO is a feature wherein the Linux kernel network stack will offload the\nIP fragmentation functionality of large UDP datagram to hardware. This\nwill reduce the overhead of stack in fragmenting the large UDP datagram to\nMTU sized packets\n\n1) Drivers indicate their capability of UFO using\ndev-\u003efeatures |\u003d NETIF_F_UFO | NETIF_F_HW_CSUM | NETIF_F_SG\n\nNETIF_F_HW_CSUM is required for UFO over ipv6.\n\n2) UFO packet will be submitted for transmission using driver xmit routine.\nUFO packet will have a non-zero value for\n\n\"skb_shinfo(skb)-\u003eufo_size\"\n\nskb_shinfo(skb)-\u003eufo_size will indicate the length of data part in each IP\nfragment going out of the adapter after IP fragmentation by hardware.\n\nskb-\u003edata will contain MAC/IP/UDP header and skb_shinfo(skb)-\u003efrags[]\ncontains the data payload. The skb-\u003eip_summed will be set to CHECKSUM_HW\nindicating that hardware has to do checksum calculation. Hardware should\ncompute the UDP checksum of complete datagram and also ip header checksum of\neach fragmented IP packet.\n\nFor IPV6 the UFO provides the fragment identification-id in\nskb_shinfo(skb)-\u003eip6_frag_id. The adapter should use this ID for generating\nIPv6 fragments.\n\nSigned-off-by: Ananda Raju \u003cananda.raju@neterion.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: Rusty Russell \u003crusty@rustcorp.com.au\u003e (forwarded)\nSigned-off-by: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo \u003cacme@mandriva.com\u003e\n" }, { "commit": "3c8c7b2f32c52b259daa7564fefd582146799b23", "tree": "59ff1ad0d6b7821d474d8fccafd884703684b6d7", "parents": [ "7cb3cd090c2725b80561958a362c2ba15a7a8c86", "9123e0d78990246304fe681167b8d8097f1e02d7" ], "author": { "name": "Jeff Garzik", "email": "jgarzik@pobox.com", "time": "Mon Oct 03 22:06:19 2005 -0400" }, "committer": { "name": "Jeff Garzik", "email": "jgarzik@pobox.com", "time": "Mon Oct 03 22:06:19 2005 -0400" }, "message": "Merge branch \u0027upstream-fixes\u0027\n" }, { "commit": "9356b8fc07dc126cd91d2b12f314d760ab48996e", "tree": "908b193442d0e2ad345c05547d227809bc162a0a", "parents": [ "2d7ceece08ad940d0ceac98ab1b5a3b82dfc2a0a" ], "author": { "name": "Eric Dumazet", "email": "dada1@cosmosbay.com", "time": "Tue Sep 27 15:23:16 2005 -0700" }, "committer": { "name": "David S.
