Jaroslav reported a recent throughput regression with virtio_net caused by blamed commit. It is unclear if DODGY GSO packets coming from user space can be accepted by GRO engine in the future with minimal changes, and if there is any expected gain from it. In the meantime, make sure to detect and flush DODGY packets.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
