Hardware checksums on bge(4) interfaces
Just a question. Is there any reason *not* to use the various pieces
of hardware checksumming that are shown as available on my bge(4)
interfaces? Each of them show bidirectional IP, TCP, and UDP checksum
capabilities. But, they're not enabled by default. I would've expected
that they'd just *always* be valuable, but they're not automatically
enabled, so I was wondering what the reasons would be to turn them on,
to leave them turned off, etc.
Sorry if this should be a tech-net question, but it is really meant
to be pretty inspecific and open. Thanks.
