Subject: [PATCH REPOST libibverbs] Add IP and TCP/UDP TX checksum offload support
Date: Sun, 14 Jun 2015 13:13:04 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1434276784-15909-1-git-send-email-ogerlitz@mellanox.com> (raw)
From: Moshe Lazer <moshel-VPRAkNaXOzVWk0Htik3J/w@public.gmane.org>
Add a device capability flag IB_DEVICE_IP_SUM to denote checksum offload
support. Devices should set this flag if they support insertion of IP, TCP
and UDP checksums on outgoing IP packets sent over IB UD or ETH RAW_PACKET QPs.
In addition add a send flag IBV_SEND_IP_CSUM to utilize this capability.

This is a rpost of the code we sent earlier on January,
I understand that people's focus nowadays is around
the few threads that deal with kernel changes, but
let's get it in to sit in the patchworks again...
