That's right, InDataGrams will increase even if we haven't verified the checksum yet. When the user does a recvmsg() or a poll() on the socket, we will notice the bad checksum then and increment InErrors. We could in this case correct the InDatagrams counter by decrementing it in this case. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
