Hello Brett, Thanks for the response. I would like to clarify that this option cannot be configured/tuned by sysadmins. Therefore, only the patch backport to kernel can fixed this issue. Could Canonical assist in integrating this patch into the 24.04 server version? After integrating this patch, we will perform the test and feedback to you.

[Fix] """"" commit b8bf38440ba94e8ed8e2ae55c5dfb0276d30e843 Author: Heiner Kallweit <hkallwe...@gmail.com> Date: Thu Oct 10 12:58:02 2024 +0200 r8169: enable SG/TSO on selected chip versions per default Due to problem reports in the past SG and TSO/TSO6 are disabled per default. It's not fully clear which chip versions are affected, so we may impact also users of unaffected chip versions, unless they know how to use ethtool for enabling SG/TSO/TSO6. Vendor drivers r8168/r8125 enable SG/TSO/TSO6 for selected chip versions per default, I'd interpret this as confirmation that these chip versions are unaffected. So let's do the same here.
