I asked same question on serverfault but since I'm not sure where is proper to ask that I'm asking same question here.



I see too many rx_csum_offload_errors on ethtool output and it constantly increases. What is the reason of these errors and how can I fix it?



# ethtool -S enp12s0f0 | grep error
rx_errors: 0
tx_errors: 0
rx_over_errors: 0
rx_crc_errors: 0
rx_frame_errors: 0
rx_fifo_errors: 0
rx_missed_errors: 0
tx_aborted_errors: 0
tx_carrier_errors: 0
tx_fifo_errors: 0
tx_heartbeat_errors: 0
rx_long_length_errors: 0
rx_short_length_errors: 0
rx_csum_offload_errors: 4421920

          rx_csum_offload_errors indicates packets are coming with bad checksums, from where we don’t know. Its not good & it can lead to corruption. I would say the cables/ports/NICs/SFPs has to be checked.
