[CentOS] How to know if packet is dropped by kernel for udp checksum mismatch
Hi all, I have a netfilter_queue app which de-obfuscates a already obfuscated udp packets. de-obfuscation process ends successfully but somehow packet is not reaching to the udp daemon. i'm suspecting this is happening because of a udp checksum mismatch. so i'm wondering how can i get logs of packets which are dropped because of udp checksum mismatch? i've heard linux by default dropps a packet if it does not have correct checksum if checksum is present, this behavior can be modified by recompiling the kernel. using a custom kernel is not in our agenda. my platform : Linux <hostname> 2.6.32-220.7.1.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Mar 7 00:52:02 GMT 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
