FreeBSD checksum offloading is a bit limited w.r.t. some virtualization use cases, but that doesn't look like what you are running into if you just have to disable TSO. What hypervisor are you using on Solaris 11? Can you post a bootverbose dmesg of your guest? I suspect your hypervisor is advertising TSO (GSO in VirtIO/Linux speak) when the tap/bridge/physical interface doesn't actually support it and does not do the segmentation in software as a fallback. > > FreeBSD carrera.snaffler.net 9.2-PRERELEASE FreeBSD 9.2-PRERELEASE #0 > r254177: Sat Aug 10 11:08:17 BST 2013 > root@carrera.snaffler.net:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/me > amd6 > > > http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-stable/2012-November/070413.html > > http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=37814 > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list > http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-stable-unsubscribe@freebsd.org" >
