My wild > guess is that it tries to save some computational workload. My guess is that it is because VXLAN originally specified that checksums should not be used. However, my expectation is the checksums will be more common with Geneve and in all cases the request of userspace should be honored. It also seemed like GRE was allocating space for the checksum but not actually computing/verifying it, which is odd. However, it's definitely possible that I'm missing something. _______________________________________________ dev mailing list dev@openvswitch.org http://openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
