commit 8914a595110a6eca69a5e275b323f5d09e18f4f9 upstream.
If a bnx2x card is passed a GSO packet with a gso_size larger than ~9700 bytes, it will cause a firmware error that will bring the card down:
bnx2x: [bnx2x_attn_int_deasserted3:4323(enP24p1s0f0)]MC assert! bnx2x: [bnx2x_mc_assert:720(enP24p1s0f0)]XSTORM_ASSERT_LIST_INDEX 0x2 bnx2x: [bnx2x_mc_assert:736(enP24p1s0f0)]XSTORM_ASSERT_INDEX 0x0 = 0x00000000 0x25e43e47 0x00463e01 0x00010052 bnx2x: [bnx2x_mc_assert:750(enP24p1s0f0)]Chip Revision: everest3, FW Version: 7_13_1 ... (dump of values continues) ...
Detect when the mac length of a GSO packet is greater than the maximum packet size (9700 bytes) and disable GSO.
