2.6.36-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------ From: Eric Dumazet <[email protected]> commit adea1ac7effbddbe60a9de6d63462bfe79289e59 upstream. While porting GRO to r8169, I found this driver has a bug in its rx path. All skbs given to network stack had their ip_summed set to CHECKSUM_NONE, while hardware said they had correct TCP/UDP checksums. The reason is driver sets skb->ip_summed on the original skb before the copy eventually done by copybreak. The fresh skb gets the ip_summed = CHECKSUM_NONE value, forcing network stack to recompute checksum, and preventing my GRO patch to work. Fix is to make the ip_summed setting after skb copy. Note : rx_copybreak current value is 16383, so all frames are copied... Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <[email protected]> Acked-by: Francois Romieu <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: David S.
