pktgen: fix packet generation (9eea9222) · Commits · e / devices / android_kernel_teracube_2e

pkt_gen->last_ok was not set properly, so after the first burst pktgen instead of allocating new packet, will reuse old one, advance eth_type_trans further, which would mean the stack will be seeing very short bogus packets. Fixes: ("pktgen: introduce xmit_mode '<start_xmit|netif_receive>'") Signed-off-by:
