FWIW, I will follow Dave's suggestion not to touch your original
support at the first place no matter how below answer looks like.

However exercising crypto engine on host running pktgen does *NOT* necessary
requiring bad IP checksum value and wrong total len value, because encryption
has been done.

I'm confused here with your test rationale, and what's wrong to use
the right checksum/total length value? Please clear my puzzles.

Thanks
