Linux kernel source tree
1385ae5c30
All the buffers and registers are already set up appropriately for an
MTU slightly above 1500, so we just need to expose this to the
networking stack. AFAICT, there's no need to implement .ndo_change_mtu
when the receive buffers are always set up to support the max_mtu.
This fixes several warnings during boot on our mpc8309-board with an
embedded mv88e6250 switch:
mv88e6085 mdio@e0102120:10: nonfatal error -34 setting MTU 1500 on port 0
...
mv88e6085 mdio@e0102120:10: nonfatal error -34 setting MTU 1500 on port 4
ucc_geth e0102000.ethernet eth1: error -22 setting MTU to 1504 to include DSA overhead
The last line explains what the DSA stack tries to do: achieving an MTU
of 1500 on-the-wire requires that the master netdevice connected to
the CPU port supports an MTU of 1500+the tagging overhead.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
