[net-next-2.6 PATCH 3/5] net: Add NETIF_F_FCOE_MTU to indicate support for a different MTU for FCoE

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Yi Zou <yi.zou@xxxxxxxxx>

Add NETIF_F_FCOE_MTU to indicate that the NIC can support a secondary MTU for
converged traffic of LAN and Fiber Channel over Ethernet (FCoE). The MTU for
FCoE is 2158 = 14 (FCoE header) + 24 (FC header) + 2112 (FC max payload) +
4 (FC CRC) + 4 (FCoE trailer).
