In some scenarios, the GRO engine can assemble an UDP GRO packet that ultimately lands on a non GRO-enabled socket. This patch tries to address the issue explicitly checking for the UDP socket features before enqueuing the packet, and eventually segmenting the unexpected GRO packet, as needed. We must also cope with re-insertion requests: after segmentation the UDP code calls the helper introduced by the previous patches, as needed. Segmentation is performed by a common helper, which takes care of updating socket and protocol stats is case of failure. rfc v3 -> v1 - fix compile issues with rxrpc - when gso_segment returns NULL, treat is as an error - added 'ipv4' argument to udp_rcv_segment() rfc v2 -> rfc v3 - moved udp_rcv_segment() into net/udp.h, account errors to socket and ns, always return NULL or segs list Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

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.
