Subject: [PATCH] veth: remove hardware checksum feature
Date: Thu, 25 Jul 2013 21:20:16 +0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <51F15E50.8080208@guap.ru> (raw)
The network device VETH can't support the feature NETIF_F_HW_CSUM.
All locally generated packets have invalid checksum.
Wrong commit http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=8093315a91340bca52549044975d8c7f673b28a1 (
kernel 3.9.0 )
Workaround "ethtool -K vethX tx off"
Possible patch:
diff --git a/drivers/net/veth.c b/drivers/net/veth.c
