Merge branch 'vxlan_rco'
Tom Herbert says: ==================== net: Remote checksum offload for VXLAN This patch set adds support for remote checksum offload in VXLAN. The remote checksum offload is generalized by creating a common function (remcsum_adjust) that does the work of modifying the checksum in remote checksum offload. This function can be called from normal or GRO path. GUE was modified to use this function. To support RCO is VXLAN we use the 9th bit in the reserved flags to indicated remote checksum offload. The start and offset values are encoded n a compressed form in the low order (reserved) byte of the vni field. Remote checksum offload is described in https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-herbert-remotecsumoffload-01 Changes in v2: - Add udp_offload_callbacks which has GRO functions that take a udp_offload pointer argument. This argument can be used to retrieve a per port structure of the encapsulation for use in gro processing (mostly by doing container_of on the structure). - Use the 10th bit in VXLAN flags for RCO which does not seem to conflict with other proposals at this time (ie. VXLAN-GPE and VXLAN-GPB) - Require that RCO must be explicitly enabled on the receiver as well as the sender. Tested by running 200 TCP_STREAM connections with VXLAN (over IPv4).
