From 52cd5750e81ec8d213949fa7c0d2e08907bf498b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ilpo Järvinen Date: Wed, 8 Oct 2008 11:34:06 -0700 Subject: tcp: fix length used for checksum in a reset MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit While looking for some common code I came across difference in checksum calculation between tcp_v6_send_(reset|ack) I couldn't explain. I checked both v4 and v6 and found out that both seem to have the same "feature". I couldn't find anything in rfc nor anywhere else which would state that md5 option should be ignored like it was in case of reset so I came to a conclusion that this is probably a genuine bug. I suspect that addition of md5 just was fooled by the excessive copy-paste code in those functions and the reset part was never tested well enough to find out the problem.
