Linux kernel source tree
Add back HW-GRO to the reported features. As the current implementation of HW-GRO uses KSMs with a specific fixed buffer size (256B) to map its headers buffer, we reported the feature only if the NIC is supporting KSM and the minimum value for buffer size is below the requested one. iperf3 bandwidth comparison: +---------+--------+--------+-----------+ | streams | SW GRO | HW GRO | Unit | |---------+--------+--------+-----------| | 1 | 36 | 42 | Gbits/sec | | 4 | 34 | 39 | Gbits/sec | | 8 | 31 | 35 | Gbits/sec | +---------+--------+--------+-----------+ A downstream patch will add skb fragment coalescing which will improve performance considerably.

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 reStructuredText 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.
