ethtool -K eth0 tx off
fixes the problem (without tso)
but running
ethtool -k eth0
Offload parameters for eth0:
rx-checksumming: on
tx-checksumming: off
scatter-gather: off
tcp-segmentation-offload: off
udp-fragmentation-offload: off
generic-segmentation-offload: on
generic-receive-offload: off
large-receive-offload: off
seems to indicate that tso is also disabled by this - does that sound
correct?
