[ Upstream commit 1e267ab88dc44c48f556218f7b7f14c76f7aa066 ]
Current xdp xmit functions logic (mlx5e_xmit_xdp_frame_mpwqe or
mlx5e_xmit_xdp_frame), validates xdp packet length by comparing it to
hw mtu (configured at xdp sq allocation) before xmiting it. This check
does not account for ethernet fcs length (calculated and filled by the
nic). Hence, when we try sending packets with length > (hw-mtu -
ethernet-fcs-size), the device port drops it and tx_errors_phy is
incremented. Desired behavior is to catch these packets and drop them
by the driver.
Fix this behavior in XDP SQ allocation function (mlx5e_alloc_xdpsq) by
subtracting ethernet FCS header size (4 Bytes) from current hw mtu
value, since ethernet FCS is calculated and written to ethernet frames
by the nic.

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.
