My testing shows that even on broken chips unaligned packets are quite rare
(only some SYN packets seem to be affected). So I tried to leave the
checksum offload path as the most preferred one.

Please indent it like the above: with two tabs. This is
to keep things consistent.

The switch construction is quite bizarre. ;-) Why not

if (gfar_has_errata() && (ulong)fcb % 0x20 > 18) {
csum_help();
} else {
lstatus |=...
tx_csum();
}

?

Thanks,

[PATCH] gianfar: Fall back to software tcp/udp checksum on older controllers

2011-01-27 Thread Alex Dubov 
As specified by errata eTSEC49 of MPC8548 and errata eTSEC12 of MPC83xx,
older revisions of gianfar controllers will be unable to calculate a TCP/UDP
packet checksum for some aligments of the appropriate FCB. This patch checks
for FCB alignment on such controllers and falls back to software checksumming
if the aligment is known to be bad.

This is my, somewhat different approach to Matthew Creech proposed solution.
