That's my feeling as well. But when I: 1) turn off all guest gso feature and mrg rx buffers, in this case virtio-net will only allocate 1500 bytes for each packet 2) doing netperf (UDP_STREAM) from local host to guest, I see packet were truncated in the guest > > Perhaps i'm misunderstanding the problem here. > I will re-check and get back to you. (probably need a while since I will not be online for the next week).
