From 72564b59ffc438ea103b0727a921aaddce766728 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Wragg Date: Wed, 10 Feb 2016 00:05:55 +0000 Subject: [PATCH 1/3] vxlan: Relax MTU constraints Allow the MTU of vxlan devices without an underlying device to be set to larger values (up to a maximum based on IP packet limits and vxlan overhead). Previously, their MTUs could not be set to higher than the conventional ethernet value of 1500. This is a very arbitrary value in the context of vxlan, and prevented vxlan devices from being able to take advantage of jumbo frames etc. The default MTU remains 1500, for compatibility.

GENEVE does not have a fixed encapsulation overhead (an openvswitch rule can add variable length options), so there is no relevant maximum MTU to enforce. A maximum of IP_MAX_MTU is used instead. Encapsulated packets that are too big for the underlying network will get dropped on the floor. Signed-off-by: David Wragg Signed-off-by: David S.

These netdevs have an MTU, which limits the size of a packet that can be successfully encapsulated. The default MTU values are low (1500 or less), which is awkwardly small in the context of physical networks supporting jumbo frames, and leads to a conspicuous change in behaviour for userspace. Instead, set the MTU on openvswitch-created netdevs to be the relevant maximum (i.e. the maximum IP packet size minus any relevant overhead), effectively restoring the behaviour prior to 4.3.
