    sfc: Use separate hardware TX queues to select checksum generation · 60ac1065
    Ben Hutchings 提交于
    Checksum generation is an attribute of our hardware TX queues, not TX
    descriptors.  We previously used a single queue and turned checksum
    generation on or off as requested through ethtool.  However, this can
    result in regenerating checksums in raw packets that should not be
    modified.  We now create 2 hardware TX queues with checksum generation
    on or off.  They are presented to the net core as one queue since it
    does not know how to select between them.
    
    The self-test verifies that a bad checksum is unaltered on the queue
    with checksum generation off.
