There is really not enough information here to make a real evaluation.
kernel is old, hardware is unspecified, and the real problem is not well
identified.

            Bug ID: 103991
           Summary: skb legth doesn't match the sum of all the fragments
                    length
           Product: Networking
           Version: 2.5
    Kernel Version: 3.13.0-62-generic
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: high
          Priority: P1
         Component: IPV4
          Assignee: shemminger@...ux-foundation.org
          Reporter: tht1234@...linator.com
        Regression: No

The DUT has 2 interfaces with the same 10GB Ethernet card .
The driver and H/W support TSO at 10G speed.
IP forwarding on the DUT is enabled.
Run iperf from a system connected to one interface to a system connedted to the
second interface:

      system A -------> DUT -------> system B

Watch the outgoing skbs on the DUT to system B:

  On packets with nr_frags == MAX_SKB_FRAGS (17) skb_len is *NOT* equal the
some of the skb->len - skb->data_len + all of its frag->size.
