[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 0/3] Removing PKT_TX_IP_CKSUM from fragmentation/reassembly lib

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 0/3] Removing PKT_TX_IP_CKSUM from fragmentation/reassembly lib

[Sunil Kumar Kori]

Patchset contains below changes:
------------------------------------------------------------
1. Currently PKT_TX_IP_CKSUM is being set into mbuf->ol_flags
during fragmentation and reassemble operation implicitly.
Because of this, application is forced to use checksum offload
whether it is supported by platform or not.
    
Also documentation does not provide any expected value of ol_flags
in returned mbuf (reassembled or fragmented) so application will never
come to know that which offloads are enabled. So transmission may gets
failed for the platforms which does not support checksum offload.
    
Also, IPv6 does not contain any checksum field in header so setting
mbuf->ol_flags with PKT_TX_IP_CKSUM is itself invalid.

So removing mentioned flag from the library.

2. Enabling PKT_TX_IP_CKSUM into mbuf->ol_flags at fragmentation
   and reassembly application itself.

As there is a change in public API behavior, I think it deserves update in release notes.

Is it safe to do this behaviour change?
You did not reply about updating the release notes.
Why did you drop this patch in v3?

May I consider this series won't go in 19.08 release?

I think we better push it into 19.08.
It is a real problem, I hit it myself while working on adding reassemble/fragmentation
support into ipsec-secgw.
Sunil, can you prepare new version as asked by Thomas?

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 2/3] examples/ip_fragmentation: Enabling IP checksum offload in mbuf

[Sunil Kumar Kori]

As per the documentation to use any IP offload features, application
must set required offload flags into mbuf->ol_flags.

Is there is any point to do that?
This sample app, as I remember doesn't request any extra HW offloads.
Same comment for patch #3.

Is this comment valid for IPv6 only ?
Otherwise for IPv4, it is required as IP checksum is neither being updated by library nor
by the application.

Yes, my comment is about the following line of code:
m->ol_flags |= PKT_TX_IPV6;

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v4 1/3] lib/librte_ip_frag: remove IP checkum offload flag

[jerinj]

From: Sunil Kumar Kori <skori@marvell.com>

Currently PKT_TX_IP_CKSUM is being set into mbuf->ol_flags
during fragmentation and reassemble operation implicitly.
Because of this, application is forced to use checksum offload
whether it is supported by platform or not.

Also documentation does not provide any expected value of ol_flags
in returned mbuf (reassembled or fragmented) so application will never
come to know that which offloads are enabled. So transmission may be failed
for the platforms which does not support checksum offload.

Also, IPv6 does not contain any checksum field in header so setting
mbuf->ol_flags with PKT_TX_IP_CKSUM is itself invalid.

So removing mentioned flag from the library.
