Hi Folks,

Any response to these queries? I'm uncomfortable TBH with this feature going in 
to 2.18 unless these are addressed/resolved. From an Intel perspective we're 
more than happy to test and review but there are genuine issues to be discussed 
I feel below before merge.

Thanks
Ian

Subject: [ovs-dev] [PATCH 1/14] Rename flags with CKSUM to CSUM

Hi Flavio, Mike,

I did have a quick look over the patch-set 
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/openvswitch/list/?series=307485

I have some comments over the patches mentioned below:
              1. Can a Cover letter be provided with the patch-set to 
understand the intent/approach of patch-set to the problem?
                             a. A cover letter would give the series a better 
title, and a place to give a high-level overview of approach.
              2. There are two big concerns with the patch-set:
                             a. The SW fallback patch is marked as an 
_untested_ patch to showcase the proposed solution. Given its untested status, 
we assume it is not a candidate for 2.18.
                             b. Changing of default behavior of TSO/GSO to 
default ON, why is this necessary? Features are typically "opt in", what makes 
TSO/GSO different?
              3. Can the patch-set be split into 2 logical parts being CSUM and 
TSO/GSO, any thoughts on this?

Regards
Amber
