From what I see right now l3fwd:
a) enables HW RX cksum offload
b) simply ignores HW provided cksum status
Which came as a real surprise to me.
Feel free to correct me if I missed something obvious here.

So, I think first we need to add missing check first,
even though it might cause some perf drop.
Then make changes to actually check provided by HW status and
when HW doesn't provide such offload do check in SW.

Another alternative would be to remove request for HW offloads
and document l3fwd that it doesn't check checksums at all,
but I don't think it is a good way.

About the approach itself.
We have similar issue for HW PTYPE recognition - some HW doesn't support it.
So we check HW capabilities and if required we setup SW RX callbacks to do
determine PTYPE in SW. Note that for EM/LPM we have different callbacks.
I think for cksum checks we can do the same:
check HW capabilities, if they are missing add a new callback that would
calculate/check cksum and set RTE_MBUF_F_RX_*_CKSUM_* flags.
That way it will HW/SW cksum will be transparent for the rest of l3fwd code.

About cksums required: for LPM/FIB mode just IPv4 cksum seems enough.
For EM we probably need L4 cksum too, though not sure is it really needed.
Wonder what other people think here?
