Date: Tue, 30 Sep 2014 22:12:05 -0700 From: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@...il.com> To: David Miller <davem@...emloft.net> Cc: Yuval.Mintz@...gic.com, therbert@...gle.com, netdev@...r.kernel.org Subject: [PATCH net-next] ipv4: mentions skb_gro_postpull_rcsum() in inet_gro_receive() From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@...gle.com> Proper CHECKSUM_COMPLETE support needs to adjust skb->csum when we remove one header. Its done using skb_gro_postpull_rcsum() In the case of IPv4, we know that the adjustment is not really needed, because the checksum over IPv4 header is 0. Lets add a comment to ease code comprehension and avoid copy/paste errors.
