This series implements BIG TCP as presented in netdev 0x15:

https://netdevconf.info/0x15/session.html?BIG-TCP

Jonathan Corbet made a nice summary: https://lwn.net/Articles/884104/

Standard TSO/GRO packet limit is 64KB

With BIG TCP, we allow bigger TSO/GRO packet sizes for IPv6 traffic.

Note that this feature is by default not enabled, because it might
break some eBPF programs assuming TCP header immediately follows IPv6 header.

While tcpdump recognizes the HBH/Jumbo header, standard pcap filters
are unable to skip over IPv6 extension headers.

Reducing number of packets traversing networking stack usually improves
performance, as shown on this experiment using a 100Gbit NIC, and 4K MTU.

'Standard' performance with current (74KB) limits.

Now enable BIG TCP on both hosts.

We see an increase of transactions per second, and lower latencies as well.

v6: fix a compilation error for CONFIG_IPV6=n in
    "net: allow gso_max_size to exceed 65536", reported by kernel bots.

v5: Replaced two patches (that were adding new attributes) with patches
    from Alexander Duyck. Idea is to reuse existing gso_max_size/gro_max_size

v4: Rebased on top of Jakub series (Merge branch 'tso-gso-limit-split')
    max_tso_size is now family independent.

v3: Fixed a typo in RFC number (Alexander)
    Added Reviewed-by: tags from Tariq on mlx4/mlx5 parts.

v2: Removed the MAX_SKB_FRAGS change, this belongs to a different series.
    Addressed feedback, for Alexander and nvidia folks.


Alexander Duyck (2):
  net: allow gso_max_size to exceed 65536
  net: allow gro_max_size to exceed 65536

Coco Li (2):
  ipv6: Add hop-by-hop header to jumbograms in ip6_output
  mlx5: support BIG TCP packets

Eric Dumazet (9):
  net: add IFLA_TSO_{MAX_SIZE|SEGS} attributes
  net: limit GSO_MAX_SIZE to 524280 bytes
  tcp_cubic: make hystart_ack_delay() aware of BIG TCP

  ipv6/gso: remove temporary HBH/jumbo header
  ipv6/gro: insert temporary HBH/jumbo header
  net: loopback: enable BIG TCP packets
  veth: enable BIG TCP packets
  mlx4: support BIG TCP packets
