ipv6: sit: add GSO/TSO support
Now ipv6_gso_segment() is stackable, its relatively easy to implement GSO/TSO support for SIT tunnels Performance results, when segmentation is done after tunnel device (as no NIC is yet enabled for TSO SIT support) : Before patch : lpq84:~# ./netperf -H 2002:af6:1153:: -Cc MIGRATED TCP STREAM TEST from ::0 (::) port 0 AF_INET6 to 2002:af6:1153:: () port 0 AF_INET6 Recv Send Send Utilization Service Demand Socket Socket Message Elapsed Send Recv Send Recv Size Size Size Time Throughput local remote local remote bytes bytes bytes secs. 10^6bits/s % S % S us/KB us/KB 87380 16384 16384 10.00 3168.31 4.81 4.64 2.988 2.877 After patch : lpq84:~# ./netperf -H 2002:af6:1153:: -Cc MIGRATED TCP STREAM TEST from ::0 (::) port 0 AF_INET6 to 2002:af6:1153:: () port 0 AF_INET6 Recv Send Send Utilization Service Demand Socket Socket Message Elapsed Send Recv Send Recv Size Size Size Time Throughput local remote local remote bytes bytes bytes secs. 10^6bits/s % S % S us/KB us/KB 87380 16384 16384 10.00 5525.00 7.76 5.17 2.763 1.840 Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
