Subject: [PATCH] net/mlx5/hws: remove csum check from L3 ok check
Date: Wed, 25 Oct 2023 23:39:18 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20231025203918.1603751-1-akozyrev@nvidia.com> (raw)

From: Michael Baum <michaelba@nvidia.com>

This patch changes the integrity item behavior for HW steering.

Old behavior: the "ipv4_csum_ok" checks only IPv4 checksum and "l3_ok"
checks everything is ok including IPv4 checksum.

New behavior: the "l3_ok" checks everything is ok excluding IPv4
checksum.

This change enables matching "l3_ok" in IPv6 packets since for IPv6
packets "ipv4_csum_ok" is always miss.
For SW steering the old behavior is kept as same as for L4 ok.
