From a2918a169f57f965e4e5949822c2602c90e388ab Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alex Elder Date: Fri, 11 Jun 2021 14:05:28 -0500 Subject: net: qualcomm: rmnet: avoid unnecessary byte-swapping Internet checksums are used for IPv4 header checksum, as well as TCP segment and UDP datagram checksums. Such a checksum represents the negated sum of adjacent pairs of bytes, using ones' complement arithmetic. One property of the Internet checkum is byte order independence [1]. Specifically, the sum of byte-swapped pairs is equal to the result of byte swapping the sum of those same pairs when not byte-swapped. So for example if a, b, c, d, y, and z are hexadecimal digits, and PLUS represents ones' complement addition: If: ab PLUS cd = yz Then: ba PLUS dc = zy For this reason, there is no need to swap the order of bytes in the checksum value held in a message header, nor the one in the QMAPv4 trailer, in order to operate on them. In other words, we can determine whether the hardware-computed checksum matches the one in the message header without any byte swaps. (This patch leaves in place all existing type casts.)
