No, we do not, because this indicates only the fact that the guest can send large UDP packets and have them splitted to UDP segments.
Actually the reverse. The set_offload() controls the tuntap TX path (guest RX path). When VIRTIO_NET_F_GUEST_XXX was not negotiated, the corresponding netdev features needs to be disabled. When host tries to send those packets to guest, it needs to do software segmentation. See virtio_net_apply_guest_offloads(). There's currently no way (or not need) to prevent tuntap from receiving GSO packets. Thanks

And how about macvtap?We will check how to do that for macvtap. We will send a separate patch for macvtap or ask for advice.quoted
