Re: [PATCH net v2 1/1] net: stmmac: Prevent DSA tags from breaking COE on stmmac

Some DSA tagging protocols change the EtherType field in the MAC header
e.g.  DSA_TAG_PROTO_(DSA/EDSA/BRCM/MTK/RTL4C_A/SJA1105). On TX these tagged
frames are ignored by the checksum offload engine and IP header checker of
some stmmac cores.

On RX, the stmmac driver wrongly assumes that checksums have been computed
for these tagged packets, and sets CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY.

Add an additional check in the stmmac tx and rx hotpaths so that COE is
deactivated for packets with ethertypes that will not trigger the COE and
ip header checks.

Fairly sure those should be Link: and Closes: should be used for bug tracker entries.

Do you need to include ETH_P_8021AD in that list as well or is not stmmac capable of checksuming beyond a single VLAN tag?

Thanks!
