Jakub Kicinski says: ==================== nfp: fix disabling TC offloads in flower, max TSO segs and module version This set corrects the way nfp deals with the NETIF_F_HW_TC flag. It has slipped the review that flower offload does not currently refuse disabling this flag when filter offload is active. nfp's flower offload does not actually keep track of how many filters for each port are offloaded. The accounting of the number of filters is added to the nfp core structures, and BPF moved to use these structures as well. If users are allowed to disable TC offloads while filters are active, not only is it incorrect behaviour, but actually the NFP will never be told to remove the flows, leading to use-after-free when stats arrive. Fourth patch makes sure we declare the max number of TSO segments. FW should drop longer packets cleanly (otherwise this would be a security problem for untrusted VFs) but dropping longer TSO frames is not nice and driver should prevent them from being generated. Last small addition populates MODULE_VERSION with kernel version. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> |

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
