Subject: [RFC 1/2] net:  Support getting/setting RX-FCS in drivers.
Date: Thu, 16 Jun 2011 21:30:06 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1308285007-11302-2-git-send-email-greearb@candelatech.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1308285007-11302-1-git-send-email-greearb@candelatech.com>

From: Ben Greear <greearb@candelatech.com>

This will allow us to enable/disable having the Ethernet
frame checksum appended to the skb.  Enabling this is
useful when sniffing packets.

In particular, this can be used to test logic that allows
a NIC to receive all frames, even ones with bad checksums.
