From: Herbert Xu Date: Mon, 8 Sep 2008 23:10:02 +0000 (-0700) Subject: net: Enable TSO if supported by at least one device X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e2a6b85247aacc52d6ba0d9b37a99b8d1a3e0d83;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git net: Enable TSO if supported by at least one device As it stands users of netdev_compute_features (e.g., bridges/bonding) will only enable TSO if all consituent devices support it. This is unnecessarily pessimistic since even on devices that do not support hardware TSO and SG, emulated TSO still performs to a par with TSO off. This patch enables TSO if at least on constituent device supports it in hardware. The direct beneficiaries will be virtualisation that uses bridging since this means that TSO will always be enabled for communication from the host to the guests.
