VIRTIO_NET_F_CTRL_GUEST_OFFLOADS simply can't > work without a ctrl vq. What's the point of keeping it on?Ah, now I was mistaken. I thought that dev->features |= NETIF_F_LRO was also contingent on VIRTIO_NET_F_CTRL_GUEST_OFFLOADS. But that's another (pair of) flag(s), of course if (virtio_has_feature(vdev, VIRTIO_NET_F_GUEST_TSO4) || virtio_has_feature(vdev, VIRTIO_NET_F_GUEST_TSO6)) dev->features |= NETIF_F_LRO; I wonder if this bug is then also triggered when enabling XDP, through virtnet_clear_guest_offloads. That predates LRO, so would deserve another Fixes tag.> > Workloads may now depend on LRO for cycle efficiency.
