From a567dd6252263c8147b7269df5d03d9e31463e11 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vlad Yasevich Date: Fri, 16 Aug 2013 15:25:00 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] macvtap: simplify usage of tap_features In macvtap, tap_features specific the features of that the user has specified via ioctl(). If we treat macvtap as a macvlan+tap then we could all the tap a pseudo-device and give it other features like SG and GSO. Then we can stop using the features of lower device (macvlan) when forwarding the traffic the tap. This solves the issue of possible checksum offload mismatch between tap feature and macvlan features. Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich Signed-off-by: David S. Miller --- Reading git-format-patch failed
