igc: fix tunnel offloading
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
commit 40ee363 upstream.

Checking tunnel offloading, it turns out that offloading doesn't work
as expected.  The following script allows to reproduce the issue.
Call it as `testscript DEVICE LOCALIP REMOTEIP NETMASK'

=== SNIP ===
if [ $# -ne 4 ]
then
  echo "Usage $0 DEVICE LOCALIP REMOTEIP NETMASK"
  exit 1
fi
DEVICE="$1"
LOCAL_ADDRESS="$2"
REMOTE_ADDRESS="$3"
NWMASK="$4"
echo "Driver: $(ethtool -i ${DEVICE} | awk '/^driver:/{print $2}') "
ethtool -k "${DEVICE}" | grep tx-udp
echo
echo "Set up NIC and tunnel..."
ip addr add "${LOCAL_ADDRESS}/${NWMASK}" dev "${DEVICE}"
ip link set "${DEVICE}" up
sleep 2
ip link add vxlan1 type vxlan id 42 \
		   remote "${REMOTE_ADDRESS}" \
		   local "${LOCAL_ADDRESS}" \
		   dstport 0 \
		   dev "${DEVICE}"
ip addr add fc00::1/64 dev vxlan1
ip link set vxlan1 up
sleep 2
rm -f vxlan.pcap
echo "Running tcpdump and iperf3..."
( nohup tcpdump -i any -w vxlan.pcap >/dev/null 2>&1 ) &
sleep 2
iperf3 -c fc00::2 >/dev/null
pkill tcpdump
echo
echo -n "Max. Paket Size: "
tcpdump -r vxlan.pcap -nnle 2>/dev/null \
| grep "${LOCAL_ADDRESS}.*> ${REMOTE_ADDRESS}.*OTV" \
| awk '{print $8}' | awk -F ':' '{print $1}' \
| sort -n | tail -1
echo
ip link del vxlan1
ip addr del ${LOCAL_ADDRESS}/${NWMASK} dev "${DEVICE}"
=== SNAP ===

The expected outcome is

  Max. Paket Size: 64904

This is what you see on igb, the code igc has been taken from.
However, on igc the output is

  Max. Paket Size: 1516

so the GSO aggregate packets are segmented by the kernel before calling
igc_xmit_frame.  Inside the subsequent call to igc_tso, the check for
skb_is_gso(skb) fails and the function returns prematurely.

It turns out that this occurs because the feature flags aren't set
entirely correctly in igc_probe.  In contrast to the original code
from igb_probe, igc_probe neglects to set the flags required to allow
tunnel offloading.

Setting the same flags as igb fixes the issue on igc.
