Subject: [PATCH net 5/6] net: bcmasp: account for offload header in TX short packet padding
Date: Tue, 22 Sep 2026 15:16:29 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260922221630.3864427-6-florian.fainelli@broadcom.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260922221630.3864427-1-florian.fainelli@broadcom.com>

When hardware checksum offload is enabled for an skb,
bcmasp_csum_offload() prepends a struct bcmasp_pkt_offload header
(20 bytes) to the skb via skb_push(). This increases skb->len and
skb_headlen(skb) by sizeof(struct bcmasp_pkt_offload).

Because the hardware descriptor processor strips this offload header
before transmitting the packet on the wire, the wire packet length is
smaller by sizeof(struct bcmasp_pkt_offload). The padding calculation
did not account for this extra header, causing short frames to skip
padding and be sent on the wire smaller than the minimum Ethernet frame
size (ETH_ZLEN + ETH_FCS_LEN).

Add sizeof(struct bcmasp_pkt_offload) to the minimum padding threshold
when hardware checksum offload is enabled.

Fixes: 490cb412007d ("net: bcmasp: Add support for ASP2.0 Ethernet controller")
