Merge branch 'mlxsw-GRE-mtu-changes'
Ido Schimmel says: ==================== mlxsw: Handle changes to MTU in GRE tunnels Petr says: When offloading GRE tunnels, the MTU setting is kept fixed after the initial offload even as the slow-path configuration changed. Worse: the offloaded MTU setting is actually just a transient value set at the time of NETDEV_REGISTER of the tunnel. As of commit ffc2b6ee ("ip_gre: fix IFLA_MTU ignored on NEWLINK"), that transient value is zero, and unless there's e.g. a VRF migration that prompts re-offload, it stays at zero, and all GRE packets end up trapping. Thus, in patch #1, change the way the MTU is changed post-registration, so that the full event protocol is observed. That way the drivers get to see the change and have a chance to react. In the remaining two patches, implement support for MTU change in mlxsw driver. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
