Subject: [net-2.6 PATCH] ixgbe: fix for 82599 errata marking UDP checksum errors
Date: Thu, 23 Jul 2009 21:00:39 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090724040031.30202.1531.stgit@localhost.localdomain> (raw)

From: Don Skidmore <donald.c.skidmore@intel.com>

There is an 82599 errata that UDP frames with a zero checksum are
incorrectly marked as checksum invalid by the hardware.  This was
leading to misleading hw_csum_rx_error counts. This patch adds a
test around this counter increase for this condition.
