NIC checksum offloading for vdevs?

Open ajamshed opened this issue 5 years ago • 1 comments

We are currently relying on NIC-based checksum verification in init.c:

https://github.com/omec-project/ngic-rtc/blob/d65e86595d03c4786ce9e6380f2e0d64c6f1db33/dp/init.c#L88-L99.

Does this cover checksum offloading for vdevs as well (e.g. virtio & af_packet devices)? This needs to be investigated.

Otherwise we need to have a pure SW-based fallback for RX-based checksum verification.
