ipvs: optimize checksums for apps
Avoid full checksum calculation for apps that can provide info whether csum was broken after payload mangling. For now only ip_vs_ftp mangles payload and it updates the csum, so the full recalculation is avoided for all packets. Add CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY for snat_handler (TCP and UDP). It is needed to support SNAT from local address for the case when csum is fully recalculated. Signed-off-by: Julian Anastasov <ja@ssi.bg> Signed-off-by: Simon Horman <horms@verge.net.au>
