tg3_start_xmit() makes the wrong assumption for TSOV6 that skb->head doesnt include any payload data. if (skb_is_gso_v6(skb)) hdr_len = skb_headlen(skb) - ETH_HLEN; This is not true anymore after commit f07d960df3 (tcp: avoid frag allocation for small frames) We should instead use : skb_transport_offset(skb) + tcp_hdrlen(skb) Its also true for IPv4 Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <redacted> CC: Matt Carlson <redacted> CC: Michael Chan <mchan@broadcom.com> --- I dont have a compatable hardware (5755_PLUS ?) so please guys test this... drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/tg3.c | 9 ++------- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-)
