No worries.

skb->csum is 32bit, but really what matters is the 16bit folded value.

So make sure to apply csum_fold() before comparing the results.

A minimal C and generic version of csum_fold() would be something like

static unsigned short csum_fold(u32 csum)
{
u32 sum = csum;
sum = (sum & 0xffff) + (sum >> 16);
sum = (sum & 0xffff) + (sum >> 16);
return ~sum;
}

I bet that csum_fold(2480936615) == csum_fold(2472089390)

It would be nice if we had a csum test suite, hint, hint ;)

Thanks !
