+Subject: [PATCH 1/2] batman-adv: fix packet checksum in receive path
|
|
+
|
|
+eth_type_trans() internally calls skb_pull(), which does not adjust the
|
|
+skb checksum; skb_postpull_rcsum() is necessary to avoid log spam of the
|
|
+form "bat0: hw csum failure" when packets with CHECKSUM_COMPLETE are
|
|
+received.
|
|
+
|
|
+Note that in usual setups, packets don't reach batman-adv with
|
|
+CHECKSUM_COMPLETE (I assume NICs bail out of checksumming when they see
|
|
+batadv's ethtype?), which is why the log messages do nor occur on every
|
|
+system using batman-adv. I could reproduce this issue by stacking
|
|
+batman-adv on top of a VXLAN interface.

+Subject: [PATCH 2/2] batman-adv: invalidate checksum on fragment reassembly
|
|
+
|
|
+A more sophisticated implementation could try to combine fragment checksums
|
|
+when all fragments have CHECKSUM_COMPLETE and are split at even offsets.
|
|
+For now, we just set ip_summed to CHECKSUM_NONE to avoid "hw csum failure"
|
|
+warnings in the kernel log when fragmented frames are received. In
|
|
+consequence, skb_pull_rcsum() can be replaced with skb_pull().
|
|
+
|
|
+Note that in usual setups, packets don't reach batman-adv with
|
|
+CHECKSUM_COMPLETE (I assume NICs bail out of checksumming when they see
|
|
+batadv's ethtype?), which is why the log messages do nor occur on every
|
|
+system using batman-adv. I could reproduce this issue by stacking
|
|
+batman-adv on top of a VXLAN interface.
