Hey guys, This is a quick note about Click's IPv6 checksum functions, which are defined in lib/ip6address.cc.
I believe that these functions are badly designed and slow. The IPv6 checksum operation is the same as the IPv4, except for the pseudoheader calculation; but these functions do them both, and the "fast" version isn't particularly fast. I would love to see a contribution of a click_in6_cksum_pseudohdr function, which would have roughly the same interface as click_in_cksum_pseudohdr. Any interest?
