Using GSO with small MTUs currently results in a substantial throughput
regression - which is caused by how qeth needs to map non-linear skbs
into its IO buffer elements:
compared to a linear skb, each GSO-segmented skb effectively consumes
twice as many buffer elements (ie two instead of one) due to the
additional header-only part. This causes the Output Queue to be
congested with low-utilized IO buffers.
Fix this as follows:
If the MSS is low enough so that a non-SG GSO segmentation produces
order-0 skbs (currently ~3500 byte), opt out from NETIF_F_SG. This is
where we anticipate the biggest savings, since an SG-enabled
GSO segmentation produces skbs that always consume at least two
buffer elements.
Larger MSS values continue to get a SG-enabled GSO segmentation, since
1) the relative overhead of the additional header-only buffer element
becomes less noticeable, and
2) the linearization overhead increases.
With the throughput regression fixed, re-enable NETIF_F_SG by default to
reap the significant CPU savings of GSO.

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.
