The idea is to tap into the potential savings of TSO without hardware support by postponing the allocation of segmented skb's until just before the entry point into the NIC driver. The same structure can be used to support software IPv6 TSO, as well as UFO and segmentation offload for other relevant protocols, e.g., DCCP. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu Signed-off-by: David S.
