The following structure is defined in virtio standard,
struct virtio_net_hdr {
#define VIRTIO_NET_HDR_F_NEEDS_CSUM 1
u8 flags;
#define VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_NONE 0
#define VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_TCPV4 1
#define VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_UDP 3
#define VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_TCPV6 4
#define VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_ECN 0x80
u8 gso_type;
le16 hdr_len;
le16 gso_size;
le16 csum_start;
le16 csum_offset;
le16 num_buffers;
};
For checksum. The 'flags', ' csum_start' and csum_offset filed need to be
filled.
For TSO, the 'gso_type', 'hdr_len' and 'csum_offset' fileds need to be filled.
