From: Paolo Abeni <[email protected]>
Sabrina reports that the igb driver does not cope well with large
MAX_SKB_FRAG values: setting MAX_SKB_FRAG to 45 causes payload
corruption on TX.
An easy reproducer is to run ssh to connect to the machine. With
MAX_SKB_FRAGS=17 it works, with MAX_SKB_FRAGS=45 it fails.
The root cause of the issue is that the driver does not take into
account properly the (possibly large) shared info size when selecting
the ring layout, and will try to fit two packets inside the same 4K
page even when the 1st fraglist will trump over the 2nd head.
Address the issue forcing the driver to fit a single packet per page,
leaving there enough room to store the (currently) largest possible
skb_shared_info.
Fixes: 3948b05950fd ("net: introduce a config option to tweak MAX_SKB_FRAG")

I wonder if adding IGB_SKB_PAD would be needed ?
adapter->max_frame_size does not seem to include it.
I would try using all mtus between 1200 and 1280 to make sure this works.
Thanks !

Erm... did you mean between 1500 and 1580 by any chance? 1200 doesn't
really seem to make sense...
I tested this patch now with mtu 1500, 1540 and 1580 successfully.
Either way, I'm just heading into vacation, so I guess I'll pick this up
again when I'm back, unless Paolo takes another look during my absence.
Thanks,
Corinna

No, I meant 1200 to 1280 . IPv4 should accept these MTU .
1200 + 768 = 1968
1280 + 768 = 2048 (2 KB)
I am worried of some padding that would cross 2048 bytes boundary,
while SKB_HEAD_ALIGN(adapter->max_frame_size) could still be < 2048

I guess your patch is better than nothing, this can be refined if
necessary later.

nit: The trailing "S" in the subject for the fixes tag seems to have been lost.
