If the proposed change is a non-backwards compatible modification right down at the bottom of the IP stack, that's a pretty big ask.  Has there been any assessment of what this is going to change or break?

well, turns out using a destination address to piggy back some computation semantics and especially changing it in mid-flite is not a great idea. Who knew ...

as to bis'ing STD86 I was quickly thinking "it's not April yet" ...

    Hi Tal,


    Please note that there is an existing draft:

    https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-xiao-spring-srv6-checksum/

    which attempts to address the problem you found and another one
    described in the penultimate paragraph of the Introduction
    section, in a different way not requiring to update RFC 8200.


    Best Regards,

    *Subject: **[IPv6] New draft: L4 Checksums in SRv6*

    Hi,

    This new draft introduces a proposed update to [RFC8200], which is
    intended to address compressed segment lists in SRv6
    [draft-ietf-spring-srv6-srh-compression].

    Link to the new draft:
    https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-mizrahi-spring-l4-checksum-srv6/

    There was some discussion in the SPRING mailing list about this issue.

    The current thread is intended to allow a wider discussion that
    includes the 6MAN working group, and therefore the new draft includes
    a wider background.

    Feedback will be welcome.

    Cheers,
    Tal.
