During a testing of an user-space application which transmits UDP
multicast datagrams and utilizes multicast routing to send the UDP
datagrams out of defined network interfaces, I've found a multicast
router does not fill-in UDP checksum into locally produced, looped-back
and forwarded UDP datagrams, if an original output NIC the datagrams
are sent to has UDP TX checksum offload enabled.
The datagrams are sent malformed out of the NIC the datagrams have been
forwarded to.
It is because:
1. If TX checksum offload is enabled on the output NIC, UDP checksum
is not calculated by kernel and is not filled into skb data.
2. dev_loopback_xmit(), which is called solely by
ip_mc_finish_output(), sets skb->ip_summed = CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY
unconditionally.
