[ovs-dev] [PATCH v2 3/4] net: is_skb_forwardable: check the size of GSO segments

Thu Jan 25 04:31:08 UTC 2018


is_skb_forwardable attempts to detect if a packet is too large to
be sent to the destination device. However, this test does not
consider GSO skbs, and it is possible that a GSO skb, when
segmented, will be larger than the device can transmit.

Create skb_gso_validate_mac_len, and use that to check.
