Linux kernel source tree
Vladimir reported csum issues after my recent change in skb_postpull_rcsum() Issue here is the following: initial skb->csum is the csum of [part to be pulled][rest of packet] Old code: skb->csum = csum_sub(skb->csum, csum_partial(pull, pull_length, 0)); New code: skb->csum = ~csum_partial(pull, pull_length, ~skb->csum); This is broken if the csum of [pulled part] happens to be equal to skb->csum, because end result of skb->csum is 0 in new code, instead of being 0xffffffff David Laight suggested to use skb->csum = -csum_partial(pull, pull_length, -skb->csum); I based my patches on existing code present in include/net/seg6.h, update_csum_diff4() and update_csum_diff16() which might need a similar fix. I guess that my tests, mostly pulling 40 bytes of IPv6 header were not providing enough entropy to hit this bug. v2: added wsum_negate() to make sparse happy. Fixes: |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
