Subject: [PATCH net-next 0/1] skbuff: Extend gso_type to unsigned int
Date: Mon, 3 Apr 2017 10:15:51 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1491207352-27585-1-git-send-email-steffen.klassert@secunet.com> (raw)

We need a GSO type for IPsec ESP to be able to integrate the IPsec
hardware offloading infrastructure. Unfortunately, all gso_type flags
are currently in use. This change extends gso_type from 'unsigned short'
to 'unsigned int'.

I'm sending this as a separate patch because it touches one of the
core networking structures, so I don't want to merge this together
with the IPsec hardware offloading infrastructure via the ipsec-next
tree.
