From dba003067a43a9699bef0c4bdbe320ece5a109b8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Davide Caratti Date: Thu, 18 May 2017 15:44:40 +0200 Subject: net: use skb->csum_not_inet to identify packets needing crc32c skb->csum_not_inet carries the indication on which algorithm is needed to compute checksum on skb in the transmit path, when skb->ip_summed is equal to CHECKSUM_PARTIAL. If skb carries a SCTP packet and crc32c hasn't been yet written in L4 header, skb->csum_not_inet is assigned to 1; otherwise, assume Internet Checksum is needed and thus set skb->csum_not_inet to 0.
