Unlike TCP, UDP checksums are optional and may be zero to indicate "not

this special case to the checksum offload emulation in net/tap.

While checking this I stuck with following part:

   cksum = ~rte_ipv6_udptcp_cksum(l3_hdr, l4_hdr);
   ...
    mbuf->ol_flags |= cksum ?
        PKT_RX_L4_CKSUM_BAD :
        PKT_RX_L4_CKSUM_GOOD;


Is this correct, or am I missing something, can intention be '!' here
instead of
'~' ?

It is correct. The packet's checksum is calculated by rte_ipv6_udptcp_cksum(), 
and it should be 0xFFFF. The '~' operation makes cksum 0 iff the calculated 
checksum is 0xFFFF.


Yep, figure that out late,
as far as I understand when the checksum value is zero, 'rte_ipv6_udptcp_cksum()' will return the checksum value and when checksum is correct in the packet, function will return 0xFFFF, this is based on checksum calculation, is this right?
