Subject: [PATCH 0/3] virtio_net GSO/partial csum fixes
Date: Tue, 27 May 2008 12:20:44 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1211887247-31979-1-git-send-email-markmc@redhat.com> (raw)

Hi Rusty,
        Here's a few virtio_net fixes related to partial csums
and GSO. These come about from playing with the tun/tap based
GSO patches you and Herbert posted earlier.

        3/3 is the signifcant one - I didn't actually reproduce
the problem with virtio_net, but rather observed it with the
tun/tap patch. In that case, packets which were sent by the
guest with a partial csum were ending up with an incorrect
csum when they were forwarded to a physical network.

Cheers,
Mark.
