From eb4d40654505e47aa9d2035bb97f631fa61d14b4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Grégoire Baron Date: Wed, 18 Aug 2010 13:10:35 +0000 Subject: net/sched: add ACT_CSUM action to update packets checksums net/sched: add ACT_CSUM action to update packets checksums ACT_CSUM can be called just after ACT_PEDIT in order to re-compute some altered checksums in IPv4 and IPv6 packets. The following checksums are supported by this patch: - IPv4: IPv4 header, ICMP, IGMP, TCP, UDP & UDPLite - IPv6: ICMPv6, TCP, UDP & UDPLite It's possible to request in the same action to update different kind of checksums, if the packets flow mix TCP, UDP and UDPLite, ... An example of usage is done in the associated iproute2 patch. Version 3 changes: - remove useless goto instructions - improve IPv6 hop options decoding Version 2 changes: - coding style correction - remove useless arguments of some functions - use stack in tcf_csum_dump() - add tcf_csum_skb_nextlayer() to factor code Signed-off-by: Gregoire Baron Acked-by: jamal Signed-off-by: David S.
