Hello, folks

When I run simple bandwidth measurement program in xen-unstable (at
least cs11736),
lots of time is consumed in 'csum_partial' function.

I heard that some guys already applied network optimization patches.
In 'Optimizing Network Virtualization in Xen' paper, they said they
applied checksum offload patches.
And they got excellant performance.
And A. Menon said their patches are already applied to unstable tree
several monthes ago.

Am I wrong in this information?

Checksum offloading features are not available in current unstable version?
Or is there any way to use checksum offloading in domU?



Thanks in advance.
