Enabled State of Checksum Offload for PVIs Was Opposite of What Was Expected
When you created a PVI vNIC on the fabric interconnect, the checksum offload feature was not enabled. However, the PVI interface on Oracle Linux hosts has checksum offload enabled by default. This inconsistency caused checksum errors on traffic sent across the PVI. This problem is fixed in this version of host driver by setting the default state of checksum offloading to disabled, which now matches the Oracle Fabric Interconnect.
