Hello Brett,

I would like to share the test we performed.

1. When running the certify-ubuntu-server in the Ubuntu Certification
Test Suite (iperf3 stress testing),  we noticed that the performance
results were below expectations. The speed is only about 70% (expected
result: over 80%). (attachment: Ubuntu Certification Test Suite failed
result )

2. Upon further investigation, we found that enabling TSO with the
command "ethtool -K <NIC port name> tx on sg on tso on" restored the
system’s LOM performance result to the expected level. (attachment:

3. Based on the results of the second, we would like these NIC features
to be enabled by default, ensuring that users do not have to manually
set the configuration every time when they execute this test. And we
have found a corresponding patch in the upstream kernel.

Would it be possible to consider integrating this patch into the Ubuntu
24.04 server version?

Thanks.
