Have you considered additionally run the same test of top of a veth
pair, and have such tests always enabled, so we could have some
coverage regardless of specific H/W available?

To do the above you should disable TSO on the veth sender peer and
enable GRO on the other end.
Thanks for the suggestion! To make sure I understand you correctly,
would this be another script that creates the veth pair separate from
the gro.sh wrapper?
I personally don't have any strict preference. I *think* the veth
thing could still fit the gro.sh script, but whatever is easier coding
wise would fit. 

The gro.sh script with no/default argument could run all the tests on a
veth pair; if a device name is specified via the command line, it could
additionally run (the specified set of tests) on such device.

Cheers,

Paolo
