FreeBSD 5.0-current has support for TCP/IP checksum offload, and the
if_ti driver makes use of it. The Tigon NICs do this in firmware though.
I attempted to add support to the SysKonnect driver, however the transmit
side checksum offload support apparently doesn't work, and the receive
side offloading has a bug which requires a bit of a workaround.

The 3Com 3c90xB/3c90xC chips are also supposed to support checksum
offload, but as of yet I haven't had much luck getting this to work
either.
