Hi,
Is it possible to use pf_ring aware drivers, e.g., ixgbe, on the reciever end 
with Rx Checksum offload enabled?
We tried ethtool -K rx off with no aparent affect - the application is 
recieving packets with incorrect checksum.
Possibly there is another way to either (1)drop malformed IP/TCP/.. packets (2) 
recieved packets with both packet&calculated checksum(s) without consuming 
software CPU?
 
The pf_ring  is configured for non-DNA performance
 
# cat /proc/net/pf_ring/info
