From 9f871e883277cc22c6217db806376dce52401a31 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ben Hutchings Date: Mon, 30 Jul 2012 16:11:42 +0000 Subject: tcp: Apply device TSO segment limit earlier [ Upstream commit 1485348d2424e1131ea42efc033cbd9366462b01 ] Cache the device gso_max_segs in sock::sk_gso_max_segs and use it to limit the size of TSO skbs. This avoids the need to fall back to software GSO for local TCP senders. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings Signed-off-by: David S.
