Yes, we'd also prefer to use a generic function, but we first would want to get some "real world" experience how our driver behaves with LRO to be even able to define requirements for such a generic function. A lot of this is tied into pathlengths, caching, and why does that help compared to a different TCP receive side processing? In a perfect world we shouldn't see a diffference if this is enabled or not, but measurements indicate something completely different at 10gbit.
