Subject: [PATCH v4 0/2] virtio-net: support distinguishing between partial and full checksum
If VIRTIO_NET_F_GUEST_CSUM is negotiated, the driver does not support the loading of XDP because it can receive packets with partial checksum. This prevents users using XDP from enjoying the benefits of device calculation and validation of checksum. This patch set is designed to resolve this issue. Changelog: ========= v3->v4: - Patch[1/2]: Update the description for VIRTIO_NET_F_GUEST_CSUM. - Patch[2/2]: - Streamline some repetitive descriptions. - Add how features should work, when to be enabled, and overhead. v2->v3: - Add a section named "Driver Handles Fully Checksummed Packets" and more descriptions. @Michael v1->v2: - Modify full checksum functionality as a configurable offload that is initially turned off. @Jason Heng Qi (2): virtio-net: update description for VIRTIO_NET_F_GUEST_CSUM. virtio-net: support distinguishing between partial and full checksum device-types/net/description.tex | 68 ++++++++++++++++++++++--- device-types/net/device-conformance.tex | 1 + device-types/net/driver-conformance.tex | 1 + introduction.tex | 3 ++ 4 files changed, 66 insertions(+), 7 deletions(-) -- 2.19.1.6.gb485710b
