ABSTRACT:
Aspects of a method and system are provided for error detection for improving data integrity in protocol offloading. Aspects of the invention may enable receiving a block of data having a modulo-based input error detection code and an error correction term appended thereto, calculating an output error detection code of the block, combining the input error detection code and the error correction term to produce a modified error detection code, and comparing the calculated error detection code to the modified error detection code so as to detect an error in the block. The error correction term may be equal to a binary difference between the input error detection code and the output error detection code. The input error detection code and the error correction term may be combined by applying an XOR operation.
