[ofa-general] checksum offload for IPonIB-CM

[Ted H. Kim]

Folks,

When I looked at the OFED code, it did not look
like IPonIB connected mode does checksum
offload. Did I understand that right?

Or is the story more complex than that?
Maybe it does it one direction but not
the other? (generate vs. check)

Was there ever an idea that we could rely on
the IB checksum to protect the
payload instead? I vaguely remember some
old presentation talking about checksum
bypass or something similar.

Thanks,
-ted
