I just skimmed the RFC and it sounds like a bit of a hack, though I am sure it can be done cleanly in the source tree without unnecessary code duplication or interference at the user-kernel boundary. I look forward to seeing patches for this. It would be interesting to see if hardware checksum offloading can be taught to do it, cleanly, though I imagine that is something much further down the line. Regards, BMS
