Changed the types from\nu32 to unsigned int to be more consistent with other variables in the\narea. Also brought the patch up to the latest net-2.6.26 tree.\n\nUpdate: Made gso_max_size container 32 bits, not 16. Moved the\nlocation of gso_max_size within netdev to be less hotpath. Made more\nconsistent names between the sock and netdev layers, and added a\ndefine for the max GSO size.\n\nUpdate: Respun for net-2.6.26 tree.\n\nUpdate: changed max_gso_frame_size and sk_gso_max_size from signed to\nunsigned - thanks Stephen!\n\nThis patch adds the ability for device drivers to control the size of\nthe TSO frames being sent to them, per TCP connection. By setting the\nnetdevice\u0027s gso_max_size value, the socket layer will set the GSO\nframe size based on that value. This will propogate into the TCP\nlayer, and send TSO\u0027s of that size to the hardware.\n\nThis can be desirable to help tune the bursty nature of TSO on a\nper-adapter basis, where one may have 1 GbE and 10 GbE devices\ncoexisting in a system, one running multiqueue and the other not, etc.\n\nThis can also be desirable for devices that cannot support full 64 KB\nTSO\u0027s, but still want to benefit from some level of segmentation\noffloading.\n\nSigned-off-by: Peter P Waskiewicz Jr \u003cpeter.p.waskiewicz.jr@intel.com\u003e\nSigned-off-by: David S.

Currently Linux network stacks\n\trestricts TSO over IPv6 by clearing of the NETIF_F_TSO bit from\n\t\"dev-\u003efeatures\". This patch will remove this restriction.\n\n\tThis patch will introduce a new flag NETIF_F_TSO6 which will be used\n\tto check whether device supports TSO over IPv6. If device support TSO\n\tover IPv6 then we don\u0027t clear of NETIF_F_TSO and which will make the\n\tTCP layer to create TSO packets. Any device supporting TSO over IPv6\n\twill set NETIF_F_TSO6 flag in \"dev-\u003efeatures\" along with NETIF_F_TSO.\n\n\tIn case when user disables TSO using ethtool, NETIF_F_TSO will get\n\tcleared from \"dev-\u003efeatures\". So even if we have NETIF_F_TSO6 we don\u0027t\n\tget TSO packets created by TCP layer.\n\n\tSKB_GSO_TCPV4 renamed to SKB_GSO_TCP to make it generic GSO packet.\n\tSKB_GSO_UDPV4 renamed to SKB_GSO_UDP as UFO is not a IPv4 feature.\n\tUFO is supported over IPv6 also\n\n\tThe following table shows there is significant improvement in\n\tthroughput with normal frames and CPU usage for both normal and jumbo.\n\n\t--------------------------------------------------\n\t| | 1500 | 9600 |\n\t| ------------------|-------------------|\n\t| | thru CPU | thru CPU |\n\t--------------------------------------------------\n\t| TSO OFF | 2.00 5.5% id | 5.66 20.0% id |\n\t--------------------------------------------------\n\t| TSO ON | 2.63 78.0 id | 5.67 39.0% id |\n\t--------------------------------------------------\n\nSigned-off-by: Herbert Xu \u003cherbert@gondor.apana.org.au\u003e\nSigned-off-by: David S.
