This sentence may need rephrasing.


Right, actually, I meant:


Try to fix this by using NETIF_F_GRO_HW instead. But we're not sure the packet could be re-segmented to the exact original packet stream. Since it's really depends on the bakcend implementation.



Or we may want a new netdev
feature like RX_GSO since the guest offloads for virtio-net is
actually to receive GSO packet.

Or we can try not advertise LRO is control guest offloads is not
enabled. This solves the warning but will still slow down the traffic.
IMO gro-hw fits pretty well, patch looks good.


If the re-segmentation is not a issue. I will post a formal patch.

Thanks
