Hi,

I'm looking at a packet trace taken of an xl card under 4.5, and I see 
bad IP and TCP/UDP checksums. The release notes state that checksumming 
maybe offloaded to the NIC now, but I'd still expect them to be correct 
in a packet trace!

More specifically, the IP checksum is always zero, while the TCP and UDP 
checksums are non-zero but bad. However, netstat shows no packets 
arriving with bad checksums, so I assume that they get mangled somewhere 
in the kernel after inbound processing. (And the machine works fine on a 
network; I found this by accident.)

Any clues?

Thanks,
Lars
