Subject: [net-next 4/5] netback: set transport header before passing it to kernel
Date: Tue, 26 Mar 2013 14:19:58 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1364278799-37285-5-git-send-email-jasowang@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1364278799-37285-1-git-send-email-jasowang@redhat.com>

Currently, for the packets receives from netback, before doing header check,
kernel just reset the transport header in netif_receive_skb() which pretends non
l4 header. This is suboptimal for precise packet length estimation (introduced
in 1def9238: net_sched: more precise pkt_len computation) which needs correct l4
header for gso packets.

The patch just reuse the header probed by netback for partial checksum packets
and tries to use skb_flow_dissect() for other cases, if both fail, just pretend
no l4 header.
