After subtraction this results in a checksum for the 1st fragment with bits 16..31 set to 1. (this is ok) _AND_ 3) The checksum of the 1st fragment's TCP header plus the previously 32bit checksum of the 1st fragment DOES NOT cause a 32bit overflow when added together. This results in a checksum of the TCP header plus TCP data that still has the upper 16 bits as 1's. _THEN_ 4) The TCP+data checksum is added to the checksum of the pseudo IP header with csum_tcpudp_nofold() incorrectly (the bug). The problem is the checksum of the TCP+data is passed to csum_tcpudp_nofold() as an 32bit unsigned value, however the assembly code acts on it as if it is a 64bit unsigned value. This causes an incorrect 32->64bit extension if the sum has bit 31 set. The resulting checksum is off by one. This problems is data and TCP header dependent due to #2 and #3 above so it doesn't occur on every TCP packet split.
