From c7ba65d7b64984ff371cb5630b36af23506c50d5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Florian Westphal Date: Mon, 5 May 2014 15:00:43 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] net: ip: push gso skb forwarding handling down the stack Doing the segmentation in the forward path has one major drawback: When using virtio, we may process gso udp packets coming from host network stack. In that case, netfilter POSTROUTING will see one packet with udp header followed by multiple ip fragments. Delay the segmentation and do it after POSTROUTING invocation to avoid this.
