From 0b7967503dc97864f283a3a06fbe23e041876138 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Micha=C5=82=20Miros=C5=82aw?= <mirq-linux@rere.qmqm.pl> Date: Tue, 14 Dec 2010 12:35:13 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] net/veth: Fix packet checksumming MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit We can't change ip_summed from CHECKSUM_PARTIAL to CHECKSUM_NONE or CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY because checksum in packet's headers is not valid and will cause invalid checksum when frame is forwarded.
