/* We do not switch off the checksumming on non TCP/UDP
The recent change to allow large frames without hardware checksumming slotted in software checksumming in the driver if hardware could not do it. This will however upset TSO (TCP Segment Offloading). Typical error dumps includes this: skb len=2961 headroom=222 headlen=66 tailroom=0 (...) WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 956 at net/core/dev.c:3259 skb_warn_bad_offload+0x7c/0x108 gemini-ethernet-port: caps=(0x0000010000154813, 0x00002007ffdd7889) And the packets do not go through. After investigating I drilled it down to the introduction of the software checksumming in the driver. Since the segmenting of packets will be done by the hardware this makes a bit of sense since in that case the hardware also needs to be keeping track of the checksumming. That begs the question why large TCP or UDP packets also have to bypass the checksumming (like e.g. ICMP does). If the hardware is splitting it into smaller packets per-MTU setting, and checksumming them, why is this happening then? I don't know. I know it is needed, from tests: the OpenWrt webserver uhttpd starts sending big skb:s (up to 2047 bytes, the max MTU) and above 1514 bytes it starts to fail and hang unless the bypass bit is set: the frames are not getting through. Drop the size check and the offloading features for now: this needs to be fixed up properly.
