From 77cffe23c1f88835f6bd7b47bfa0c060c2969828 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tom Herbert Date: Wed, 27 Aug 2014 21:26:46 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] net: Clarification of CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY This patch: - Clarifies the specific requirements of devices returning CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY (comments in skbuff.h). - Adds csum_level field to skbuff. This is used to express how many checksums are covered by CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY (stores n - 1). This replaces the overloading of skb->encapsulation, that field is is now only used to indicate inner headers are valid. - Change __skb_checksum_validate_needed to "consume" each checksum as indicated by csum_level as layers of the the packet are parsed. - Remove skb_pop_rcv_encapsulation, no longer needed in the new csum_level model.
