--- Comment #34 from Tom Jones <t...@freebsd.org> ---
Hi,

This was highlighted to me as a long standing issue that the foundation might
look at. There is a decade of discussion here and it isn't super clear if there
are several symptoms that are addressed by disabling checksum offload or if
there are multiple issues.

I think there are two different cases (if I were writing tests, which I will
try to).

FreeBSD as a router on Linux KVM incorrectly skips checksum calculations
breaking forwarding.

FreeBSD as a router with checksum offload disabled is unable to forward
suitable traffic rates.

can someone confirm by reading of the thread and suggest other failure cases?

My preference would be to write tests for issues we can identify, close this
bug and track fixing the tests in their own bugs. 10 years of comments is hard
to reason about :).

Ideally someone(s) running FreeBSD on KVM would help me populate a wiki page
with exemplar use cases, that would allow me to find someone to help write
tests and put together a test environment.
