TSO will generate segments with recomputed checksums for each one of them. GRO only keeps one copy of the headers, so does not track original checksums for all segments at ingress side. So if you want to use TSO, GRO has to validate checksums. I am afraid this nf_conntrack_checksum idea can not be transposed to GRO. > Signed-off-by: Rafał Miłecki <rafal@milecki.pl> > --- > Hi guys, > > I'm not very familiar with net subsystem, please let me know if there is > a better way of implementing such a feature. > --- > net/ipv4/tcp_offload.c | 3 +++ > net/ipv6/tcpv6_offload.c | 3 +++ > 2 files changed, 6 insertions(+) > > diff --git a/net/ipv4/tcp_offload.c b/net/ipv4/tcp_offload.c > index 30abde86db45..734a3c0f3d4a 100644 > --- a/net/ipv4/tcp_offload.c > +++ b/net/ipv4/tcp_offload.c > @@ -311,6 +311,9 @@ struct sk_buff *tcp4_gro_receive(struct list_head *head, struct sk_buff *skb) > { > /* Don't bother verifying checksum if we're going to flush anyway. */ > if (!NAPI_GRO_CB(skb)->flush && > +#if IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK) > + dev_net(skb->dev)->ct.sysctl_checksum && > +#endif > skb_gro_checksum_validate(skb, IPPROTO_TCP, > inet_gro_compute_pseudo)) { > NAPI_GRO_CB(skb)->flush = 1; > diff --git a/net/ipv6/tcpv6_offload.c b/net/ipv6/tcpv6_offload.c > index 39db5a226855..2144afa56fa3 100644 > --- a/net/ipv6/tcpv6_offload.c > +++ b/net/ipv6/tcpv6_offload.c > @@ -18,6 +18,9 @@ struct sk_buff *tcp6_gro_receive(struct list_head *head, struct sk_buff *skb) > { > /* Don't bother verifying checksum if we're going to flush anyway. */ > if (!NAPI_GRO_CB(skb)->flush && > +#if IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK) > + dev_net(skb->dev)->ct.sysctl_checksum && > +#endif > skb_gro_checksum_validate(skb, IPPROTO_TCP, > ip6_gro_compute_pseudo)) { > NAPI_GRO_CB(skb)->flush = 1; > -- > 2.34.1 >
