This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled ip6_tunnel: update mtu properly for ARPHRD_ETHER tunnel device in tx path to the 4.13-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: ip6_tunnel-update-mtu-properly-for-arphrd_ether-tunnel-device-in-tx-path.patch and it can be found in the queue-4.13 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From foo@baz Mon Oct 9 09:32:35 CEST 2017 From: Xin Long <lucien.xin@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Thu, 28 Sep 2017 13:24:07 +0800 Subject: ip6_tunnel: update mtu properly for ARPHRD_ETHER tunnel device in tx path From: Xin Long <lucien.xin@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit d41bb33ba33b8f8debe54ed36be6925eb496e354 ] Now when updating mtu in tx path, it doesn't consider ARPHRD_ETHER tunnel device, like ip6gre_tap tunnel, for which it should also subtract ether header to get the correct mtu.
