Subject: [PATCH] net/gve: Update max_rx_pktlen to be based on MTU
Date: Mon, 16 Oct 2023 13:59:48 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20231016205948.2252342-1-joshwash@google.com> (raw)

Before this patch, max_rx_pktlen was always set to UINT16_MAX. This, in
conjunction with the MTU fix, causes problems with testpmd, as setting the
packet length with the --max-pkt-len flag causes the MTU to be set
higher than possible due to underflow.

As an example, setting --max-pkt-len=1460 (the default MTU on Google
Cloud VMs) causes testpmd to set the following:
    mtu = 1460 - eth_overhead,

where eth_overhead = dev->max_rx_pktlen - dev->max_mtu = 65535 - 1460.

Thus, mtu = 1460 - 65535 + 1460 = 2921 due to underflow.
