Please answer these questions before submitting your issue. Thanks!

What version of Go are you using (go version)?

1.8.5/1.9.3 (linux-amd64)

Does this issue reproduce with the latest release?

yes, 1.9.3 still has this issue

What operating system and processor architecture are you using (go env)?

What did you do?

write a simple UDP client to test:

cat client.go
package main
import (
    "fmt"
    "net"
    "bufio"
)

func main() {
    p :=  make([]byte, 2048)
    conn, err := net.Dial("udp", "127.0.0.1:1234")
    if err != nil {
        fmt.Printf("Some error %v", err)
        return
    }
    fmt.Fprintf(conn, "Hi UDP Server, How are you doing?")
    _, err = bufio.NewReader(conn).Read(p)
    if err == nil {
        fmt.Printf("%s\n", p)
    } else {
        fmt.Printf("Some error %v\n", err)
    }
    conn.Close()
}
go run client.go
tcpdump -xxx -vvv -eni lo

If possible, provide a recipe for reproducing the error.
A complete runnable program is good.
A link on play.golang.org is best.

What did you expect to see?

The Client send packets with correct checksum

What did you see instead?

seems that the fe3c is fixed for the UDP checksum.

This is not a bug in Go but a feature of the operation system.
Just run tcpdump -xxx -vvv -eni lo and you can see a lot of packets with wrong checksum.

this is just a sample, when i sent request to another host, it still has such issue. the checksum is wrong, either.

It is not Go that computes the UDP checksum. It is the networking layer. Closing because there is nothing we can change in Go to fix this.

I think that is another feature of the operating system.
