[PATCH 16/23] [PPP]: Fixed hardware RX checksum handling

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------

    
When we pull the PPP protocol off the skb, we forgot to update the
hardware RX checksum.  This may lead to messages such as

	dsl0: hw csum failure.
    
Similarly, we need to clear the hardware checksum flag when we use
the existing packet to store the decompressed result.
