-       skb->h.raw = payload;

+       skb_reset_transport_header(skb);

__skb_pull results in:

skb->data = skb->data + payload - skb->data;
skb->data = payload;

So after __skb_pull we have skb->data pointing to payload and we can
just call skb_reset_transport_header(skb), that will do:

skb->h.raw = payload;

The others are similar, allowing us to get rid of some more cases where a
pointer was being attributed to the layer headers.

This command is similar to SO_TIMESTAMP, but permits transmission of

(nanosecond resolution instead of microsecond)

17 years ago[UDP]: Clean up UDP-Lite receive checksum
Herbert Xu [Mon, 26 Mar 2007 03:10:56 +0000 (20:10 -0700)]
[UDP]: Clean up UDP-Lite receive checksum

This patch eliminates some duplicate code for the verification of
receive checksums between UDP-Lite and UDP.  It does this by
introducing __skb_checksum_complete_head which is identical to
__skb_checksum_complete_head apart from the fact that it takes
a length parameter rather than computing the first skb->len bytes.

As a result UDP-Lite will be able to use hardware checksum offload
for packets which do not use partial coverage checksums.  It also
means that UDP-Lite loopback no longer does unnecessary checksum
verification.

If any NICs start support UDP-Lite this would also start working
automatically.

This patch removes the assumption that msg_flags has MSG_TRUNC clear
upon entry in recvmsg.
