Re: netfilter-queue: Incorrect UDP checksum computation in nfq_udp_compute_checksum_ipv4

Hi Pablo,

>>> the function nfq_udp_compute_checksum_ipv4 (src/extra/udp.c) does not
>>> compute the correct UDP checksum.
>>> The issue is caused by the called function checksum_tcpudp_ipv4()
>>> (src/extra/checksum.c) that uses the hard coded protocol id IPPROTO_TCP
>>> which is fine for TCP but fails for UDP.
>>> A possible solution might be to pass the protocol id (IPPROTO_TCP /
>>> IPPROTOC_UDP) as parameter to the function checksum_tcpudp_ipv4().
>>>
>>> The very same is also true for the IPv6 versions of these functions.
>>>
>>> Any feedback is welcome.
>>
>> Would you send us a patch to fix this? Thanks!

It looks as if the line-structure of the patch is broken.
I have attached the patch as file to this mail.
