[PATCH v4 net-next 09/14] net: loopback: enable BIG TCP packets

From: Eric Dumazet <hidden>
Date: 2022-03-10 05:47:51
Subsystem: networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>

Set the driver limit to 512 KB per TSO ipv6 packet.

This allows the admin/user to set a GSO ipv6 limit up to this value.

Tested:

ip link set dev lo gso_ipv6_max_size 200000
netperf -H ::1 -t TCP_RR -l 100 -- -r 80000,80000 &

tcpdump shows :
