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_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.
