From 82d8189826d54740607e6a240e602850ef62a07d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Fri, 25 Oct 2013 18:25:03 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] veth: extend features to support tunneling While investigating on a recent vxlan regression, I found veth was using a zero features set for vxlan tunnels. We have to segment GSO frames, copy the payload, and do the checksum. This patch brings a ~200% performance increase We probably have to add hw_enc_features support on other virtual devices.
