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 a
quoted
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.
Hi Alexander,

I'm not sure if I should wait for the current patch to get reviewed,
then I'll write the vlan related patch we talked about based on the
current patch?

Thanks,
Jason

If you're available, please help me review the v3 patch I've already
sent to the mailing-list. Thanks anyway.
