Subject: "hw csum failure" error on skge driver with 4.3 kernel upon
receiving ICMPv6 multicast listener discovery packets
The skge driver in the 4.3 kernel reports hardware checksum errors
upon receiving (certain?) IPv6 multicast packets containing ICMPv6
multicast listener discovery messages. This is a regression since 4.1
(I believe between 4.1 and 4.2). The e1000e driver on a different
Ethernet port of the same machine is not affected. Disabling offload
rx checksumming suppresses the errors. Nor are all IPv6 multicast
packets affected: for some reason, it seems only those containing
ICMPv6 multicast listener discovery messages trigger the problem.
In case it also matters, the skge interface in question (eth1 in what
follows) is part of a bridge that contains another Ethernet interface
and a Wifi card.
Here is a frame, with its link-level headers, that caused an error
when received by skge:
0000 33 33 ff 62 30 d8 60 fb 42 f1 b1 36 86 dd 60 00 33.b0.`.B..6..`.
0010 00 00 00 20 00 01 fe 80 00 00 00 00 00 00 62 fb ... ..........b.
0020 42 ff fe f1 b1 36 ff 02 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 B....6..........
0030 00 01 ff 62 30 d8 3a 00 01 00 05 02 00 00 83 00 ...b0.:.........
0040 c9 8a 00 00 00 00 ff 02 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ................
0050 00 01 ff 62 30 d8 ...b0.
(Network dumps performed on another network device suggest that the
checksum is, indeed, correct.)
And here is the syslog produced upon receiving the above packet:

I can unfortunately offer no additional information: I will no longer
be using this Ethernet hardware and can only access the machine
physically on rare occasions, so I can do no further tests. Here are
links to the basic config information, though:
