[Bug 1771740] Re: Expose link offload options

 

** Description changed:

+ [Impact]
+ 
+  * An explanation of the effects of the bug on users and
+ 
+  * justification for backporting the fix to the stable release.
+ 
+  * In addition, it is helpful, but not required, to include an
+    explanation of how the upload fixes this bug.
+ 
+ [Test Plan]
+ 
+  * detailed instructions how to reproduce the bug
+ 
+  * these should allow someone who is not familiar with the affected
+    package to reproduce the bug and verify that the updated package fixes
+    the problem.
+ 
+  * if other testing is appropriate to perform before landing this update,
+    this should also be described here.
+ 
+ [Where problems could occur]
+ 
+  * Think about what the upload changes in the software. Imagine the change is
+    wrong or breaks something else: how would this show up?
+ 
+  * It is assumed that any SRU candidate patch is well-tested before
+    upload and has a low overall risk of regression, but it's important
+    to make the effort to think about what ''could'' happen in the
+    event of a regression.
+ 
+  * This must '''never''' be "None" or "Low", or entirely an argument as to why
+    your upload is low risk.
+ 
+  * This both shows the SRU team that the risks have been considered,
+    and provides guidance to testers in regression-testing the SRU.
+ 
+ [Other Info]
+  
+  * Anything else you think is useful to include
+  * Anticipate questions from users, SRU, +1 maintenance, security teams and the Technical Board
+  * and address these questions in advance
+ 
+ [Original Description]

  https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.link.html has a
  number of [Link] options which I need to use for a flaky network card
  (TCPSegmentationOffload, TCP6SegmentationOffload,
  GenericSegmentationOffload, GenericReceiveOffload, LargeReceiveOffload)
  which are not exposed via netplan.
