X-Git-Tag: v223~108^2~1
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f5f07dbf06f6df9d12e092c05ad8cfbe244d203f;p=thirdparty%2Fsystemd.git

 This patch adds support to configure IFF_VNET_HDR flag
for a tap device. It allows whether sending and receiving
large pass larger (GSO) packets. This greatly increases the
achievable throughput.
