OK, Roland, correct, in my review I failed to catch the fact that the way to go by the HW driver is set the device_cap_flags and by the ULP to issue device query and not rely on the flags field.

So have you actually tested any of these checksum offload code paths?

yes, although the vast majority of the testing here is under the ofed form of these patches (a point to fix!) where Eli updated the ofed ones after getting feedback/comments from me and others.

To remove doubt "[PATCH 4/16 v4] IB/ipoib: Add checksum offload support" works well over Mellanox device b/c mthca and mlx4 sets the flags field, over other devices the behavior is not defined.

So, Eli, this must be fixed for rc5. Also, and more important, lets no let the missing of 2.6.25 stop the merging of the stateless offloads, submitting the fixes early will ensure its goes into 2.6.26

Or.
