Deactivating TCP checksumming

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

 




Hello all,
I am trying to de-activate the TCP checksumming and allow hardware (GBE to compute it for me). But can any one let me know how to do it.


This is what I did.But Its not working for me.

In linux/net/ipv4/tcp.c there are function calls to csum_and_copy_from_user(). I replaced it from copy_from_user() and set the skb->ip_summed = CHECKSUM_HW and skb->csum = 1;. Is this correct. Since its not working there must be something more that has to be done. could any one please tell me what additional thinks I need to do.

All suggestion are highly apperciated.

Thanking You
Shesha
