    ice: add support BIG TCP on IPv6 · fce92dbc
    Pawel Chmielewski authored
    Enable sending BIG TCP packets on IPv6 in the ice driver using generic
    ipv6_hopopt_jumbo_remove helper for stripping HBH header.
    
    Tested:
    netperf -t TCP_RR -H 2001:db8:0:f101::1  -- -r80000,80000 -O MIN_LATENCY,P90_LATENCY,P99_LATENCY,TRANSACTION_RATE
    
    Tested on two different setups. In both cases, the following settings were
    applied after loading the changed driver:
    
    ip link set dev enp175s0f1np1 gso_max_size 130000
    ip link set dev enp175s0f1np1 gro_max_size 130000
    ip link set dev enp175s0f1np1 mtu 9000
    
    First setup:
