Revision e488921f44765e8ab6c48ca35e3f6b78df9819df authored by Michal Schmidt on 13 September 2012, 12:59:44 UTC, committed by David S. Miller on 18 September 2012, 20:13:46 UTC
Commit d6cb3e41 "bnx2x: fix checksum validation" caused a performance regression for IPv6. Rx checksum offload does not work. IPv6 packets are passed to the stack with CHECKSUM_NONE. The hardware obviously cannot perform IP checksum validation for IPv6, because there is no checksum in the IPv6 header. This should not prevent us from setting CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY. Tested on BCM57711. Signed-off-by: Michal Schmidt <mschmidt@redhat.com> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Acked-by: Eilon Greenstein <eilong@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
