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.

If both have TSO then this produces\nan illegal combination.\n\nThe bridge device on the other hand has the correct code to\ndeal with this.\n\nIn fact, the same code can be used for both. So this patch\nmoves that logic into net/core/dev.c and uses it for both\nbonding and bridging.\n\nIn the process I\u0027ve made small adjustments such as only\nsetting GSO_ROBUST if at least one constituent device\nsupports it.\n\nSigned-off-by: Herbert Xu \u003cherbert@gondor.apana.org.au\u003e\nSigned-off-by: David S.
