Moshe Shemesh 5fa9f2bdf8 net/mlx5e: RX, verify received packet size in Linear Striding RQ 
[ Upstream commit 0073c8f727 ]

In case of striding RQ, we use  MPWRQ (Multi Packet WQE RQ), which means
that WQE (RX descriptor) can be used for many packets and so the WQE is
much bigger than MTU.  In virtualization setups where the port mtu can
be larger than the vf mtu, if received packet is bigger than MTU, it
won't be dropped by HW on too small receive WQE. If we use linear SKB in
striding RQ, since each stride has room for mtu size payload and skb
info, an oversized packet can lead to crash for crossing allocated page
boundary upon the call to build_skb. So driver needs to check packet
size and drop it.

Introduce new SW rx counter, rx_oversize_pkts_sw_drop, which counts the
number of packets dropped by the driver for being too large.

As a new field is added to the RQ struct, re-open the channels whenever
this field is being used in datapath (i.e., in the case of linear
Striding RQ).

README 

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 Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
