Yes.

The NIC driver is not upstream. And my system is arm64.

256KB

I am not sure.
I add some debug message in kernel:

netstat -s | grep -i TCPBacklogDrop increases 20-40 per second.
It's about 1.2% (117724(TCPBacklogDrop)/214502873(InSegs of cat 
/proc/net/snmp)).

How about expand the buffer like:
