offset, in bytes, from the start of the IP header to the end of the checksum span
offset, in bytes, from the start of the IP header to the checksum field in the protocol header
hardware computed checksum value
per-packet flags indicating the hardware checksumming to be performed on outbound packets, or the hardware checksumming performed on inbound packet
Solaris architecture specific (Solaris DDI)
Hardware checksumming allows the checksum computation to be offloaded to the network device hardware for lower CPU utilization. Hardware checksumming capabilities are advertised from the driver's mc_getcapab(9E) entry point. The description of mc_getcapab() also includes more information about the expected behavior of drivers for full and partial checksumming offload.
For received traffic, the hardware can enable hardware checksumming, and the network stack will know how to handle packets for which checksum computation or verification has been performed. The mac_hcksum_set() function can be used by a device driver to associate information related to the hardware checksumming performed on the packet.
The flags argument can be a combination of the following:
The full checksum was computed, and is passed through the value argument.
The full checksum was verified in hardware and is correct.
Partial checksum computed and passed through the value argument. The start and end arguments specify the checksum span.
IP header checksum was verified in hardware and is correct.
HCK_PARTIALCKSUM is mutually exclusive with the HCK_FULLCKSUM and HCK_FULLCKSUM flags.
For outbound packets, hardware checksumming capabilities are queried via the mc_getcapab() entry point. Hardware checksumming is enabled by the network stack based on the MAC_CAPAB_HCKSUM capability. A device driver that advertised support for this capability can subsequently receive outbound packets that may not have a fully computed checksum. It is the responsibility of the driver to invoke mac_hcksum_get() to retrieve the per-packet hardware checksumming metadata.
Compute full checksum for this packet.
Compute partial 1's complement checksum based on the start, stuff, and offset.
Compute the IP header checksum.
HCK_PARTIALCKSUM is mutually exclusive with HCK_FULLCKSUM.
The flags HCK_FULLCKSUM, HCK_FULLCKSUM_OK, and HCK_PARTIALCKSUM are used for both IPv4 and IPv6 packets. The driver advertises support for IPv4 and/or IPv6 full checksumming during capability negotiation. See mc_getcapab(9E).
