[PATCH 1/2] ipvs: IPv6 MTU checking cleanup and bugfix

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

 



Cleaning up the IPv6 MTU checking in the IPVS xmit code, by using
a common helper function __mtu_check_toobig_v6().  The MTU check
for tunnel mode is special, and does not use this helper.

Notice, this also fixes a bug, as the the MTU check in ip_vs_dr_xmit_v6()
were missing a check for skb_is_gso().

This e.g. caused issues for KVM IPVS setups, where different
Segmentation Offloading techniques are utilized, between guests,
via the virtio driver.  This resulted in very bad performance,
due to the ICMPv6 "too big" messages didn't affect the sender.
