This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled xen-netfront: reduce gso_max_size to account for max TCP to the linux-3.5.y-queue branch of the 3.5.y.z extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.5.y-queue If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.5.y.z tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Luis ------ From 1ba05a195917d1b49765c0fc9ac3d893655a881a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Wei Liu <wei.liu2@citrix.com> Date: Mon, 22 Apr 2013 02:20:41 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] xen-netfront: reduce gso_max_size to account for max TCP header commit 9ecd1a75d977e2e8c48139c7d3efed183f898d94 upstream. The maximum packet including header that can be handled by netfront / netback wire format is 65535. Reduce gso_max_size accordingly. Drop skb and print warning when skb->len > 65535. This can 1) save the effort to send malformed packet to netback, 2) help spotting misconfiguration of netfront in the future.
