PMTUD is ignored, and locking to a lower MTU in the OS mitigates the issue. -Steps to reproduce: -1. Create a guest with an RTL8139 nic -2. Try to retrieve a file from a client behind a sub 1500 MTU link -3. Observe low bandwidth due to retransmits -Additional information: -I just debugged this issue for an NGO which, for whatever reason, had an RTL8139 NIC in their guest. After i finally traced this to the RTL8139, i found this qemu-devel/netdev thread from six years ago, which apparently already debugged this issue and proposed a patch: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20161114162505.GD26664@stefanha-x1.localdomain/ - -I did not test the patch proposed there, but note that `net/hw/8139.c` still looks as discussed in that qemu-devel/netdev thread. As i haven't found a bug report in the archives, i figured you might want to know. |
