Hi all,

I use checksum-offloading for calculating the checksum of packets that i 
change/create inside my app.
I use it for regular packets and for gre packets (on gre - the checksum is 
calculated on the outer-header).

On dpdk-16.07 everything works fine , But when i try to use that with 
DPDK-16.11 it seems that the offloading on GRE packets does not work (while on 
the regular packets it still works fine).

In dpdk-16.07 I use the following flags on my mbuf to mark to the NIC that the 
packets need checksum calculation (m is the "struct rte_mbuf"):
 "m->ol_flags |=  PKT_TX_OUTER_IPV4|PKT_TX_OUTER_IP_CKSUM;"

On 16.11 I tried to add also the PKT_TX_TUNNEL_GRE (As i saw that addition in 
"csumonly.c" in the 16.11 version in the "pmd-test" app) - but that also didn't 
help.

My NIC is : "Intel Corporation Ethernet Controller X710 for 10Gbe backplane"
And i run my app in Ubuntu-14.0.4.

Any Ideas?

Thanks in advance -
Eyal
