You said in this thread that you've done several tests - what were they?Tests against XDP are running on the server side when MTU varies from 1500 to 3050 (not including ETH_HLEN, ETH_FCS_LEN and VLAN_HLEN) for aquoted
BTW, if ixgbe allows you to set MTU of 3050, it needs to be fixed. Intel drivers at some point didn't include the second VLAN tag into account,Yes, I noticed that. It should be like "int new_frame_size = new_mtu + ETH_HLEN + ETH_FCS_LEN + (VLAN_HLEN * 2)" instead of only one VLAN_HLEN, which is used to compute real size in ixgbe_change_mtu() function. I'm wondering if I could submit another patch to fix the issue you mentioned because the current patch tells a different issue. Does it make sense?
Yes, please send as a separate patch. It's somewhat related to the topic, but better to keep commits atomic.
If you're available, please help me review the v3 patch I've already sent to the mailing-list. Thanks anyway. The Link is https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230131032357.34029-1-kerneljasonxing@gmail.com/ (local) . Thanks, Jason
