Subject: net/tun: implement ndo_set_rx_headroom
X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=eaea34b23c46bf17b4a5638be69ab3561854f34b;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

net/tun: implement ndo_set_rx_headroom

ndo_set_rx_headroom controls the align value used by tun devices to
allocate skbs on frame reception.
When the xmit device adds a large encapsulation, this avoids an skb
head reallocation on forwarding.

The measured improvement when forwarding towards a vxlan dev with
frame size below the egress device MTU is as follow:

vxlan over ipv6, bridged: +6%
vxlan over ipv6, ovs: +7%

In case of ipv4 tunnels there is no improvement, since the tun
device default alignment provides enough headroom to avoid the skb
head reallocation.
