The patch adds GRO support for TCP/ipv6 packets. This does not
include the support for vxlan, udp ipv6 packets.

Signed-off-by: Kumara Parameshwaran <kumaraparamesh92@gmail.com>
---
v1:
	* Changes to support GRO for TCP/ipv6 packets. This does not include
	  vxlan changes. 
	* The GRO is performed only for ipv6 packets that does not contain 
	 extension headers. 
	* The logic for the TCP coalescing remains the same, in ipv6 header 
	  the source address, destination address, flow label, version fields 
	  are expected to be the same. 
	* Re-organised the code to reuse certain tcp functions for both ipv4 and 
	  ipv6 flows.

Hi,

I would like to get a review on the following patch where support is added
for IPv6 GRO.

Thanks,
Param.

Hi Kumar,

I don’t have much experience on IPv6, but I will find time to review the patch.
Besides, if anyone can help to review the patch, it would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Jiayu

Subject: Re: [PATCH] gro : ipv6 changes to support GRO for TCP/ipv6

Hi,

I would like to get a review on the following patch where support is added for IPv6 GRO.

Thanks,
Param.

The patch adds GRO support for TCP/ipv6 packets. This does not
include the support for vxlan, udp ipv6 packets.

Signed-off-by: Kumara Parameshwaran <kumaraparamesh92@gmail.com<mailto:kumaraparamesh92@gmail.com>>

v1:
        * Changes to support GRO for TCP/ipv6 packets. This does not include
          vxlan changes.
        * The GRO is performed only for ipv6 packets that does not contain
         extension headers.
        * The logic for the TCP coalescing remains the same, in ipv6 header
          the source address, destination address, flow label, version fields
          are expected to be the same.
        * Re-organised the code to reuse certain tcp functions for both ipv4 and
          ipv6 flows.
