It does the below check and decides to go for checksum or not. skb->ip_summed= CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY will disable the checksum calculation by linux stack. Your HW can appends its own checksum. Good detailed info on http://www.mail-archive.com/netdev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/msg17044.html ============== static inline int skb_csum_unnecessary(const struct sk_buff *skb) { return skb->ip_summed & CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY; } -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
