netdev: introduce new NETIF_F_HW_SWITCH_OFFLOAD feature flag for switch device offloads

2015-02-02T07:16:33Z

This is a high level feature flag for all switch asic offloads switch drivers set this flag on switch ports. Logical devices like bridge, bonds, vxlans can inherit this flag from their slaves/ports. The patch also adds the flag to NETIF_F_ONE_FOR_ALL, so that it gets propagated to the upperdevices (bridges and bonds). Signed-off-by: Roopa Prabhu Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: Remove MPLS GSO feature.

2014-11-06T07:52:33Z

Device can export MPLS GSO support in dev->mpls_features same way it export vlan features in dev->vlan_features. So it is safe to remove NETIF_F_GSO_MPLS redundant flag. Signed-off-by: Pravin B Shelar

udp: Changes to udp_offload to support remote checksum offload

2014-11-05T21:30:03Z

Add a new GSO type, SKB_GSO_TUNNEL_REMCSUM, which indicates remote checksum offload being done (in this case inner checksum must not be offloaded to the NIC). Added logic in __skb_udp_tunnel_segment to handle remote checksum offload case. Signed-off-by: Tom Herbert Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

openvswitch: Enable tunnel GSO for OVS bridge.

2014-07-24T08:15:04Z

Following patch enables all available tunnel GSO features for OVS bridge device so that ovs can use hardware offloads available to underling device. Signed-off-by: Pravin B Shelar Acked-by: Andy Zhou

net: Fix GSO constants to match NETIF flags

2014-06-15T08:00:49Z

Joseph Gasparakis reported that VXLAN GSO offload stopped working with i40e device after recent UDP changes. The problem is that the SKB_GSO_* bits are out of sync with the corresponding NETIF flags. This patch fixes that. Also, we add BUILD_BUG_ONs in net_gso_ok for several GSO constants that were missing to avoid the problem in the future.

gre: Call gso_make_checksum

2014-06-05T05:46:38Z

Call gso_make_checksum. This should have the benefit of using a checksum that may have been previously computed for the packet. This also adds NETIF_F_GSO_GRE_CSUM to differentiate devices that offload GRE GSO with and without the GRE checksum offloaed. Signed-off-by: Tom Herbert Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: Add GSO support for UDP tunnels with checksum

2014-06-05T05:46:38Z

Added a new netif feature for GSO_UDP_TUNNEL_CSUM. This indicates that a device is capable of computing the UDP checksum in the encapsulating header of a UDP tunnel. Signed-off-by: Tom Herbert Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: add busy_poll device feature

2014-04-03T18:31:34Z

Currently there is no way how to find out if a device supports busy polling. So add a feature and make it dependent on ndo_busy_poll existence. Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

vlan: Warn the user if lowerdev has bad vlan features.

2014-03-28T21:16:51Z

Some drivers incorrectly assign vlan acceleration features to vlan_features thus causing issues for Q-in-Q vlan configurations. Warn the user of such cases. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: Add layer 2 hardware acceleration operations for macvlan devices

2013-11-08T00:11:41Z

Add a operations structure that allows a network interface to export the fact that it supports package forwarding in hardware between physical interfaces and other mac layer devices assigned to it (such as macvlans). This operaions structure can be used by virtual mac devices to bypass software switching so that forwarding can be done in hardware more efficiently.
