[PATCH v3 0/2] Fix thunderx MTU with XDP

[PATCH v3 0/2] Fix thunderx MTU with XDP

[Matteo Croce]

The thunderx driver can't use XDP with all MTU values.
This patches sets the right MTU values, and add a check to avoid setting
a wrong value which will not function.

v3: Fix a copy-paste from two functions, tested on proper hardware:

# ip link show dev enP2p1s0v0
2: enP2p1s0v0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
    link/ether 1c:1b:0d:0d:52:a4 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
# ip link set enP2p1s0v0 mtu 1800
# ip link set dev enP2p1s0v0 xdpdrv object mtu.o
[  787.019730] nicvf 0002:01:00.1 enP2p1s0v0: Jumbo frames not yet supported with XDP, current MTU 1800.

# ip link set enP2p1s0v0 mtu 1500

[  807.248321] nicvf 0002:01:00.1 enP2p1s0v0: Jumbo frames not yet supported with XDP, current MTU 1500.

[PATCH v3 1/2] net: thunderx: raise XDP MTU to 1508

[Matteo Croce]

The thunderx driver splits frames bigger than 1530 bytes to multiple
pages, making impossible to run an eBPF program on it.
This leads to a maximum MTU of 1508 if QinQ is in use.

The thunderx driver forbids to load an eBPF program if the MTU is higher
than 1500 bytes. Raise the limit to 1508 so it is possible to use L2
protocols which need some more headroom.

[PATCH v3 2/2] net: thunderx: don't allow jumbo frames with XDP

[Matteo Croce]

The thunderx driver forbids to load an eBPF program if the MTU is too high,
but this can be circumvented by loading the eBPF, then raising the MTU.

Fix this by limiting the MTU if an eBPF program is already loaded.
