Subject: [PATCH] metag: checksum.h: fix carry in csum_tcpudp_nofold
Date: Tue, 9 Jul 2013 10:57:05 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <51DBDE71.1000805@imgtec.com> (raw)

In csum_tcpudp_nofold, add 1 if the carry bit is set after adding the
destination IP address (32 bits) to the checksum (16 bits).

The lack of carry handling for this particular addition meant that a
destination address of *.*.255.255 (e.g. certain broadcasts) sometimes
resulted in an incorrect checksum. This bug has been present in the Meta
port since the code was written in the 2.4 days.

I'll add this patch to my arch/metag fixes branch for v3.11.
