From: Mark McLoughlin Date: Sun, 8 Jun 2008 10:49:00 +0000 (+1000) Subject: virtio_net: Fix skb->csum_start computation X-Git-Tag: v2.6.26-rc6~13^2^2~11 X-Git-Url: http://pilppa.com/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=23cde76d801246a702e7a84c3fe3d655b35c89a1;p=linux-2.6-omap-h63xx.git virtio_net: Fix skb->csum_start computation hdr->csum_start is the offset from the start of the ethernet header to the transport layer checksum field. skb->csum_start is the offset from skb->head. skb_partial_csum_set() assumes that skb->data points to the ethernet header - i.e. it computes skb->csum_start by adding the headroom to hdr->csum_start. Since eth_type_trans() skb_pull()s the ethernet header, skb_partial_csum_set() should be called before eth_type_trans(). (Without this patch, GSO packets from a guest to the world outside the host are corrupted).
