Hi,
I am looking for the code in linux kernel that verifies the checksum of
TCP
header and IP header for inbound packet. The packet supposes to be
dropped
if the checksum doesn't match.
Here is some code that checks the TCP checksum.
/*
 * Calculate(/check) TCP checksum
 */
static inline __sum16 tcp_v4_check(int len, __be32 saddr,
                                   __be32 daddr, __wsum base)
{
        return csum_tcpudp_magic(saddr,daddr,len,IPPROTO_TCP,base);
}
from: include/net/tcp.h
also, try searching for csum_error in net/ipv4/tcp_ipv4.c
