Subject[PATCH] net: gro: respect nf_conntrack_checksum for skipping csum verification
Date
From: Rafał Miłecki <rafal@milecki.pl>

Netfilter allows disabling checksum verification of incoming packets by
setting nf_conntrack_checksum variable. That feature is very useful for
home routers which:
1. Most of the time just /forward/ network traffic
2. Have slow CPU(s) and csum calculation is a challenge

Some projects like OpenWrt set nf_conntrack_checksum to 0 by default.

It would be nice to allow similar optimization in the GRO code paths.
This patch simply reuses nf_conntrack_checksum variable to skip
skb_gro_checksum_validate() calls if applicable.

Hi guys,

I'm not very familiar with net subsystem, please let me know if there is
a better way of implementing such a feature.
