Peilin Ye says:

====================
devices always NETIF_F_LLTX

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/cover.1650580763.git.peilin.ye@bytedance.com/

change since v1:
  - deleted "depends on patch..." in [1/2]'s commit message

This patchset depends on these fixes [1], which has been merged into
net-next.  Since o_seqno is now atomic_t, we can always turn on
NETIF_F_LLTX for [IP6]GRE[TAP] devices, since we no longer need the TX
lock (&txq->_xmit_lock).

We could probably do the same thing to [IP6]ERSPAN devices as well, but
I'm not familiar with them yet.  For example, ERSPAN devices are
initialized as |= GRE_FEATURES in erspan_tunnel_init(), but I don't see
IP6ERSPAN devices being initialized as |= GRE6_FEATURES.  Where should we
initialize IP6ERSPAN devices' ->features?  Please suggest if I'm missing
something, thanks!

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

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.
