Date: Mon, 24 Nov 2014 20:08:25 -0800 From: alexander.duyck@...il.com To: netdev@...r.kernel.org Cc: davem@...emloft.net Subject: [net PATCH 0/2] Fix outer UDP checksums for IPv6 VXLAN tunnels In testing against an older kernel I found a couple issues in the IPv6 VXLAN tunnel checksum logic for the outer UDP checksum. First the default transitioned from using an outer checksum to not using one. Second, sometime after that the checksum inputs were changed resulting the checksum not being correct if it were computed. These two issues prevented a ping from the newer kernel to the older one. With these two changes applied I verified I was able to send traffic over the VXLAN tunnel to a link partner on an older kernel. The boolean flip fix can be submitted for 3.17 stable as well since the patch that introduced the issue was included in that kernel. --- Alexander Duyck (2): ip6_udp_tunnel: Fix checksum calculation vxlan: Fix boolean flip in VXLAN_F_UDP_ZERO_CSUM6_[TX|RX] drivers/net/vxlan.c | 4 ++-- net/ipv6/ip6_udp_tunnel.c | 4 +--- 2 files changed, 3 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) -- -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
