We had some recent IPsec GRO changes, this could influence TCP.
But these changes were introduced before rc2. If I read this correct,
the regression was introduced between rc2 and rc3, right?

When talking about IPsec, I guess you use ESP, right?

If it is a GRO issue, then it is on the receive side, could you do
tcpdump on the receiving interface to see what you get there?

What shows /proc/net/xfrm_stat?

Can you do 'ip -s x s' to see if the SAs are used?

Do you have INET_ESP_OFFLOAD enabled?
