[PATCH net v2 1/3] selftests: forwarding: vxlan_bridge_1d: fix test failure with br_netfilter enabled

From: Aleksei Oladko <hidden>
Date: 2026-02-13 13:19:29
Also in: linux-kselftest, lkml
Subsystem: kernel selftest framework, networking [general], networking [ipv4/ipv6], the rest · Maintainers: Shuah Khan, Shuah Khan, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, David Ahern, Ido Schimmel, Linus Torvalds

The test generates VXLAN traffic using mausezahn, where the encapsulated
inner IPv4 packet contains a zero IP header checksum. After VXLAN
decapsulation, such packets do not pass sanity checks in br_netfilter
and are dropped, which causes the test to fail.

Fix this by calculating and setting a valid IPv4 header checksum for the
encapsulated packet generated by mausezahn, so that the packet is accepted
by br_netfilter. Fixed by using the payload_template_calc_checksum() /
payload_template_expand_checksum() helpers that are only available
in v6.3 and newer kernels.
