In udp_queue_rcv_skb(), checksum condition is error. When UDP filter is
set, checksum is be done, but if UDP filter is not set, checksum will
not be done. So I think this is a BUG. Following is my patch:
--- a/net/ipv4/udp.c    2006-07-31 09:33:45.392479344 -0400
+++ b/net/ipv4/udp.c    2006-07-31 17:10:41.271632200 -0400
@@ -1018,7 +1018,7 @@ static int udp_queue_rcv_skb(struct sock
               /* FALLTHROUGH -- it's a UDP Packet */
       }

-       if (sk->sk_filter && skb->ip_summed != CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY) {
+       if (!sk->sk_filter && skb->ip_summed != CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY) {
               if (__udp_checksum_complete(skb)) {
                       UDP_INC_STATS_BH(UDP_MIB_INERRORS);
                       kfree_skb(skb);
For the record, this isn't correct since the only reason we're computing
a checksum here rather than recv(2) time is if we have a filter attached.

Cheers,
