Hi Sibiao, does rhel5.9 host has the same behavior? If host works well, could you please check if this is a regression compared with rhel5.8 guest?

Hi all,
I check this issue on the rhel5.9 host, it has the same behavior, no mater the TX is on or off, all cksum listenned by "tcpdump" were "correct...". btw, rhel5.8 guest also can hit this issue, this is not a regression bug.
Above all, move this issue to the kernel component.
Best wish.
