This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed- vivid' to 'verification-done-vivid'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-vivid' to 'verification-failed-vivid'.
If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed.

It was setting the receive checksum unnecessary flag based on the IP header checksum being correct. The checksum flag is skb is about TCP and UDP checksum status. Because of this bug, any packet received with bad TCP checksum would be passed up the stack and to the application causing data corruption. The problem is reproducible via netcat and netem. This had a side effect of not doing receive checksum offload on IPv6. The driver was also also always doing checksum offload independent of the checksum setting done via ethtool.
