Subject: [PATCH net] ice: Fix missing 1's complement negation in GCS raw checksum
Date: Wed,  8 Apr 2026 20:02:14 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260408190214.1287708-1-matt@readmodwrite.com> (raw)

From: Matt Fleming <mfleming@cloudflare.com>

Commit 905d1a220e8d ("ice: Add E830 checksum offload support") added
Generic Checksum (GCS) support for E830 NICs but omitted the 1's
complement negation (~) when converting the hardware raw_csum to
skb->csum for CHECKSUM_COMPLETE.

Without the negation, every CHECKSUM_COMPLETE packet fails the
fast-path validation in nf_ip_checksum() and falls through to software
checksumming via __skb_checksum_complete(), which triggers the
rate-limited "hw csum failure" warning. Packets are still accepted
(the software recheck passes) but hardware checksum offload is
effectively disabled and the warning floods dmesg on systems running
nf_conntrack on VLAN sub-interfaces.

Multiple other drivers (idpf, ehea, iwlwifi, cassini, sunhme, enetc)
also apply ~ for CHECKSUM_COMPLETE. The ice driver was the only in-tree
user of csum_unfold() for CHECKSUM_COMPLETE that omitted it.
