[PATCH 0/5 v2] net: Checksum offload changes - Part III

From: Tom Herbert <hidden>
Date: 2014-05-19 17:09:48

I am working on overhauling RX checksum offload. Goals of this effort
are:

- Specify what exactly it means when driver returns CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY
- Preserve CHECKSUM_COMPLETE through encapsulation layers
- Don't do skb_checksum more than once per packet
- Unify GRO and non-GRO csum verification as much as possible
- Unify the checksum functions (checksum_init)
- Simply code

What is in this third patch set:

- Remove sk_no_check from sunrpc (doesn't seem to have any effect)
- Eliminate no_check from protosw. All protocols are using default of
  zero for this
- Split sk_no_check into sk_no_check_tx and sk_no_check_rx
- Make enabling of UDP6 more restrictive and explicit
- Support zero UDP6 checksums in l2tp

Please review carefully and test if possible, mucking with basic
checksum functions is always a little precarious :-)
