From 14de9d114a82a564b94388c95af79a701dc93134 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Aaron Conole Date: Fri, 3 Jun 2016 16:57:12 -0400 Subject: virtio-net: Add initial MTU advice feature This commit adds the feature bit and associated mtu device entry for the virtio network device. When a virtio device comes up, it checks the feature bit for the VIRTIO_NET_F_MTU feature. If such feature bit is enabled, the driver will read the advised MTU and use it as the initial value.
