Subject: [PATCH v6 06/11] net/rtap: add checksum and TSO offload support
Date: Sat, 14 Feb 2026 15:44:15 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260214234726.188947-7-stephen@networkplumber.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260214234726.188947-1-stephen@networkplumber.org>
Add transmit and receive offload support using the virtio-net header
that is exchanged with the kernel TAP device.
Tx offloads:
- UDP and TCP checksum offload: set VIRTIO_NET_HDR_F_NEEDS_CSUM
with appropriate csum_start and csum_offset fields
- TCP segmentation offload (TSO): set gso_type and gso_size
Rx offloads:
- Enable receive offloads based on configuration
Report offload capabilities in dev_info.
Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <stephen@networkplumber.org>
