Subject: [PATCH 0/6] net: stmmac: fix handling of oversized frames

From: Aaro Koskinen <aaro.koskinen@...ia.com>

Hi,

I accidentally had MTU size mismatch (9000 vs. 1500) in my network,
and I noticed I could kill a system using stmmac & 1500 MTU simply
by pinging it with "ping -s 2000 ...".

While testing a fix I encountered also some other issues that need fixing.

I have tested these only with enhanced descriptors, so the normal
descriptor changes need a careful review.

A.

Aaro Koskinen (6):
  net: stmmac: use correct DMA buffer size in the RX descriptor
  net: stmmac: ratelimit RX error logs
  net: stmmac: don't stop NAPI processing when dropping a packet
  net: stmmac: don't overwrite discard_frame status
  net: stmmac: fix dropping of multi-descriptor RX frames
  net: stmmac: don't log oversized frames
