Package: lxc Version: 1:2.0.3-1 Severity: important Hi,
When booting containers, DHCP fails to get an IP due to invalid UDP checksums. I use the lxc-net-based setup as described in https://wiki.debian.org/LXC/SimpleBridge ("using lxc-net"). This creates a lxcbr0 bridge. When starting up, the containers' veth device is correctly attached to the bridge. However, it fails to get an IP using DHCP. Using tcpdump on the host, on the veth device, I see: 9:41:14.923738 IP (tos 0xc0, ttl 64, id 42999, offset 0, flags [none], proto UDP (17), length 329) 10.0.3.1.67 > 10.0.3.233.68: [bad udp cksum 0x1c30 -> 0x2064!] BOOTP/DHCP, Reply, length 301, xid 0xa447c322, Flags [none] (0x0000) Your-IP 10.0.3.233 Server-IP 10.0.3.1 Client-Ethernet-Address 00:ff:aa:ab:cd:01 Vendor-rfc1048 Extensions Magic Cookie 0x63825363 DHCP-Message Option 53, length 1: ACK Server-ID Option 54, length 4: 10.0.3.1 Lease-Time Option 51, length 4: 3600 RN Option 58, length 4: 1800 RB Option 59, length 4: 3150 Subnet-Mask Option 1, length 4: 255.255.255.0 BR Option 28, length 4: 10.0.3.255 Default-Gateway Option 3, length 4: 10.0.3.1 Domain-Name-Server Option 6, length 4: 10.0.3.1 Hostname Option 12, length 7: "debian8" 09:41:17.594912 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 1, id 54287, offset 0, flags [DF], proto UDP (17), length 194) 10.0.3.1.44012 > 239.255.255.250.1900: [bad udp cksum 0xfdba -> 0x8df0!] UDP, length 166 09:41:18.596600 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 1, id 54466, offset 0, flags [DF], proto UDP (17), length 194) 10.0.3.1.44012 > 239.255.255.250.1900: [bad udp cksum 0xfdba -> 0x8df0!] UDP, length 166 09:41:19.597758 IP (tos 0x0, ttl 1, id 54542, offset 0, flags [DF], proto UDP (17), length 194) 10.0.3.1.44012 > 239.255.255.250.1900: [bad udp cksum 0xfdba -> 0x8df0!] UDP, length 166 09:41:19.928511 ARP, Ethernet (len 6), IPv4 (len 4), Request who-has 10.0.3.233 tell 10.0.3.1, length 28 If, on the host, I disable checksum offloading using: sudo ethtool -K vethILRWN4 tx off Then DHCP succeeds. This seems to be related to the bridge setup: if I manually remove the veth device from the bridge, set an IP on it, etc. then everything works fine.
