net: Checksum offload changes - Part VI
I am working on overhauling RX checksum offload. Goals of this effort
are:
- Specify what exactly it means when driver returns CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY
- Preserve CHECKSUM_COMPLETE through encapsulation layers
- Don't do skb_checksum more than once per packet
- Unify GRO and non-GRO csum verification as much as possible
- Unify the checksum functions (checksum_init)
- Simplify code
What is in this sixth patch set:
- Clarify the specific requirements of devices returning
CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY (comments in skbuff.h).
- Add csum_level field to skbuff. This is used to express how
many checksums are covered by CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY (stores n - 1).
- 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.
- Allow GRO path to "consume" checksums provided in CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY
and to report new verfied checksums for use in normal path fallback.
- Add proper support to SCTP to accept CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY to validate
header CRC.
- Modify drivers to set skb->csum_level instead of setting
skb->encapsulation to indicate validation of an encapsulated
checksum on receive.
v2:
Allocate a new 16 bits for flags in skbuff.
Please review carefully and test if possible, mucking with basic
checksum functions is always a little precarious :-)
