Bug ID: 1590 Summary: rte_ipv6_phdr_cksum users wrong proto Product: DPDK Version: 20.11 Hardware: All OS: All Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: Normal Component: core Assignee: dev@dpdk.org Reporter: maa...@mail.ru Target Milestone: --- It seems rte_ipv6_phdr_cksum implementation uses wrong proto field for pseudo-header during calculating checksum: static inline uint16_t rte_ipv6_phdr_cksum(const struct rte_ipv6_hdr *ipv6_hdr, uint64_t ol_flags) { uint32_t sum; struct { rte_be32_t len; /* L4 length. */ rte_be32_t proto; /* L4 protocol - top 3 bytes must be zero */ } psd_hdr; psd_hdr.proto = (uint32_t)(ipv6_hdr->proto << 24); if (ol_flags & PKT_TX_TCP_SEG) { psd_hdr.len = 0; } else { psd_hdr.len = ipv6_hdr->payload_len; } sum = __rte_raw_cksum(ipv6_hdr->src_addr, sizeof(ipv6_hdr->src_addr) + sizeof(ipv6_hdr->dst_addr), 0); sum = __rte_raw_cksum(&psd_hdr, sizeof(psd_hdr), sum); return __rte_raw_cksum_reduce(sum); } proto is taken directly from the header while RFC 8200 clearly states: The Next Header value in the pseudo-header identifies the upper-layer protocol (e.g., 6 for TCP or 17 for UDP). It will differ from the Next Header value in the IPv6 header if there are extension headers between the IPv6 header and the upper-layer header. see https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc8200 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
