This patch and commit message are based on r340256 created by Jacob Keller: The iflib stack does not disable TSO automatically when TXCSUM is disabled, instead assuming that the driver will correctly handle TSOs even when CSUM_IP is not set. This results in iflib calling ixgbe_isc_txd_encap with packets which have CSUM_IP_TSO, but do not have CSUM_IP or CSUM_IP_TCP set. Because of this, ixgbe_tx_ctx_setup will not setup the IPv4 checksum offloading. This results in bad TSO packets being sent if a user disables TXCSUM without disabling TSO. Fix this by updating the ixgbe_tx_ctx_setup function to check both CSUM_IP and CSUM_IP_TSO when deciding whether to enable checksums. Once this is corrected, another issue for TSO packets is revealed. The driver sets IFLIB_NEED_ZERO_CSUM in order to enable a work around that causes the ip->sum field to be zero'd. This is necessary for ix hardware to correctly perform TSOs. However, if TXCSUM is disabled, then the work around is not enabled, as CSUM_IP will not be set when the iflib stack checks to see if it should clear the sum field. Fix this by adding IFLIB_TSO_INIT_IP to the iflib flags for the ix and ixv interface files. Once both of these changes are made, the ix and ixv drivers should correctly offload TSO packets when TSO offload is enabled, regardless of whether TXCSUM is enabled or disabled.

FreeBSD is an operating system used to power modern servers, desktops, and embedded platforms. A large community has continually developed it for more than thirty years. Its advanced networking, security, and storage features have made FreeBSD the platform of choice for many of the busiest web sites and most pervasive embedded networking and storage devices.
