Series ipv6: avoid atomic fragment on GSO output |

Commit Message

Yan Zhai Oct. 24, 2023, 2:35 a.m. UTC
  RTAX_FEATURE_ALLFRAG was added before the first git commit:

https://www.mail-archive.com/bk-commits-head@vger.kernel.org/msg03399.html

The feature would send packets to the fragmentation path if a box
receives a PMTU value with less than 1280 byte. However, since commit
9d289715eb5c ("ipv6: stop sending PTB packets for MTU < 1280"), such
message would be simply discarded. The feature flag is neither supported
in iproute2 utility. In theory one can still manipulate it with direct
netlink message, but it is not ideal because it was based on obsoleted
guidance of RFC-2460 (replaced by RFC-8200).

The feature would always test false at the moment, so remove related
code or mark them as unused.

V3 -> V4: cleaned up all RTAX_FEATURE_ALLFRAG code, rather than just
drop the check at IPv6 output.

Nit: Why not remove the ALLFRAG define as well?

Otherwise the series looks good to me, thanks!

I agree, this is not exposed to user space and should be deleted.

I thought there was some convention of not deleting macros. I sent a
V5 to fix this up (not sure if it is the right approach to go) and
carried your review-by tags over since it's just a small change.
Appreciate if there are any more suggestions there.

thanks
Yan
