I checked with Herbert Xu and its not legal for the checksum to be missing
for TCP. However it is possible for there to be a partial checksum for
loopback traffic. That is, only the pseudo-header is summed.
The patch outlines a fix for this problem using the existing
structure of ip_vs_proto_tcp.c. I believe that a similar fix
is also required for UDP. I am posting it now so people can comment
on its correctness.
Moving forward tcp_partial_csum_update() and tcp_fast_csum_update()
could be implemented in terms of inet_proto_csum_replace* if
inet_proto_csum_replace16 was added. I will work on coding this up.
