From 1f1eb00c6ebb5578867cff53572b40ed0c7cb45c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Raed Salem Date: Mon, 17 Dec 2018 11:40:06 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] net/mlx5e: FPGA, fix Innova IPsec TX offload data path performance [ Upstream commit 82eaa1fa0448da1852d7b80832e67e80a08dcc27 ] At Innova IPsec TX offload data path a special software parser metadata is used to pass some packet attributes to the hardware, this metadata is passed using the Ethernet control segment of a WQE (a HW descriptor) header. The cited commit might nullify this header, hence the metadata is lost, this caused a significant performance drop during hw offloading operation. Fix by restoring the metadata at the Ethernet control segment in case it was nullified.
