[ Upstream commit 46e4c421a053c36bf7a33dda2272481bcaf3eed3 ] In one error case, tpacket_rcv drops packets after incrementing the ring producer index. If this happens, it does not update tp_status to TP_STATUS_USER and thus the reader is stalled for an iteration of the ring, causing out of order arrival. The only such error path is when virtio_net_hdr_from_skb fails due to encountering an unknown GSO type. Signed-off-by: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
