Subject: [PATCH net 2/3] net: stmmac: dwmac1000: don't discard frames with only a checksum error
Date: Tue, 20 Oct 2026 21:03:17 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261020190319.884375-3-opensource@grische.xyz> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261020190319.884375-1-opensource@grische.xyz>
On dwmac1000 with enhanced descriptors, the hardware sets the Error
Summary (ES) bit of the Rx descriptor not only for L2 errors but also
for an L3/L4 checksum error. enh_desc_get_rx_status() returns
discard_frame whenever ES is set, and since commit 1b746ce8b397 ("net:
stmmac: don't overwrite discard_frame status") the checksum status is
only evaluated for good frames.
Return discard_frame only for L2 errors. A frame with only a checksum
error is then reported as csum_none and reaches the stack as
CHECKSUM_NONE, so the stack verifies the checksum itself. This matches
dwmac4, whose Error Summary check does not include the checksum bits.
Also drop the per-frame pr_err in enh_desc_get_rx_status(). Once the MAC
delivers checksum-error frames, it can be triggered from the wire.
This prepares for setting DMA_CONTROL_DT, which makes the MAC deliver
checksum-error frames instead of dropping them in its Rx FIFO.
Fixes: 1b746ce8b397 ("net: stmmac: don't overwrite discard_frame status")
