From b17c706987fa6f28bdc1771c8266e7a69e22adcb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Daniel Borkmann Date: Sat, 22 Feb 2014 14:01:53 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] loopback: sctp: add NETIF_F_SCTP_CSUM to device features Drivers are allowed to set NETIF_F_SCTP_CSUM if they have hardware crc32c checksumming support for the SCTP protocol. Currently, NETIF_F_SCTP_CSUM flag is available in igb, ixgbe, i40e/i40evf drivers and for vlan devices. If we don't have NETIF_F_SCTP_CSUM then crc32c is done through CPU instructions, invoked from crypto layer, or if not available as slow-path fallback in software. Currently, loopback device propagates checksum offloading feature flags in dev->features, but is missing SCTP checksum offloading. Therefore, account for NETIF_F_SCTP_CSUM as well.
