commit7c6d2ecbdaupstream. Recent change in virtio_net_hdr_to_skb() broke some packetdrill tests. When --mss=XXX option is set, packetdrill always provide gso_type & gso_size for its inbound packets, regardless of packet size. if (packet->tcp && packet->mss) { if (packet->ipv4) gso.gso_type = VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_TCPV4; else gso.gso_type = VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_TCPV6; gso.gso_size = packet->mss; } Since many other programs could do the same, relax virtio_net_hdr_to_skb() to no longer return an error, but instead ignore gso settings. This keeps Willem intent to make sure no malicious packet could reach gso stack. Note that TCP stack has a special logic in tcp_set_skb_tso_segs() to clear gso_size for small packets.

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.
