There's something I don't understand here. I see:
NETIF_F_UFO_BIT, /* ... UDPv4 fragmentation */
this comment is wrong then?
The patches drastically regress performance for UDPv4 for VMs only, but
isn't it likely many other devices based their code on this comment?
How about we disable UFO for IPv6 globally, and put the
flag back in?
We can then gradually add NETIF_F_UFO6_BIT for devices that
actually support UFO for IPv6.
Thoughts?
