This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled Revert "macvlan : fix checksums error when we are in bridge mode" to the linux-3.11.y-queue branch of the 3.11.y.z extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.11.y-queue If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.11.y.z tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Luis ------ From bbdac00b578d032743b847bcf532eb4140826e99 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vlad Yasevich <vyasevic@redhat.com> Date: Tue, 29 Apr 2014 10:09:51 -0400 Subject: Revert "macvlan : fix checksums error when we are in bridge mode" commit f114890cdf84d753f6b41cd0cc44ba51d16313da upstream. This reverts commit 12a2856b604476c27d85a5f9a57ae1661fc46019. The commit above doesn't appear to be necessary any more as the checksums appear to be correctly computed/validated. Additionally the above commit breaks kvm configurations where one VM is using a device that support checksum offload (virtio) and the other VM does not. In this case, packets leaving virtio device will have CHECKSUM_PARTIAL set. The packets is forwarded to a macvtap that has offload features turned off. Since we use CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY, the host does does not update the checksum and thus a bad checksum is passed up to the guest.
