We've been getting checksum errors involving small UDP packets, usually
59B packets with 1 extra non-zero padding byte. netdev_rx_csum_fault()
has been complaining that HW is providing bad checksums. Turns out the
problem is in pskb_trim_rcsum_slow(), introduced in commit 88078d98d1bb
("net: pskb_trim_rcsum() and CHECKSUM_COMPLETE are friends").
The source of the problem is that when the bytes we are trimming start
at an odd address, as in the case of the 1 padding byte above,
skb_checksum() returns a byte-swapped value. We cannot just combine this
with skb->csum using csum_sub(). We need to use csum_block_sub() here
that takes into account the parity of the start address and handles the
swapping.
Matches existing code in __skb_postpull_rcsum() and esp_remove_trailer().
