Nice article, but it does not mention if the current kernel supports
TOE or not. Anyway, I downloaded the latest kernel 2.6.31.4, and
checked source code. There is nothing to indicate supporting TOE. My
conclusion is as of today, Linux kernel does not support TOE, please
correct me if my conclusion is wrong.

Thank you.

Cheers.
