3 Subject: [PATCH] batman-adv: invalidate checksum on fragment reassembly
4
5 A more sophisticated implementation could try to combine fragment checksums
6 when all fragments have CHECKSUM_COMPLETE and are split at even offsets.
7 For now, we just set ip_summed to CHECKSUM_NONE to avoid "hw csum failure"
8 warnings in the kernel log when fragmented frames are received. In
9 consequence, skb_pull_rcsum() can be replaced with skb_pull().
10
11 Note that in usual setups, packets don't reach batman-adv with
12 CHECKSUM_COMPLETE (I assume NICs bail out of checksumming when they see
13 batadv's ethtype?), which is why the log messages do not occur on every
14 system using batman-adv. I could reproduce this issue by stacking
15 batman-adv on top of a VXLAN interface.
