Oh weird. So it's not about getting some weird LRO packet. We will get it with VIRTIO_NET_F_GUEST_TSO4 anyway. It's about the LRO flag being set in features. How about this then? Just pretend to Linux that we disabled LRO. diff --git a/drivers/net/virtio_net.c b/drivers/net/virtio_net.c index 8a58a2f013af..8e7e4cea176b 100644 --- a/drivers/net/virtio_net.c +++ b/drivers/net/virtio_net.c @@ -2651,8 +2651,9 @@ static int virtnet_set_features(struct net_device *dev, ~GUEST_OFFLOAD_LRO_MASK; err = virtnet_set_guest_offloads(vi, offloads); - if (err) - return err; + WARN_ON(err); + //if (err) + // return err; vi->guest_offloads = offloads; } -- MST _______________________________________________ Virtualization mailing list Virtualization@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/virtualization
