In order to enable this series I had to make a change to iptunnel_handle_offloads so that it would no longer free the skb. This was necessary as there were multiple paths in the IPv6 GRE code that required the skb to still be present so it could be freed. As it turned out I believe this actually fixes a bug that was present in FOU/GUE based tunnels anyway. Below is a quick breakdown of the performance gains seen with a simple netperf test passing traffic through a ip6gretap tunnel and then an i40e interface: Throughput Throughput Local Local Result Units CPU Service Tag Util Demand % 3544.93 10^6bits/s 6.30 4.656 "before" 13081.75 10^6bits/s 3.75 0.752 "after" ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
