Hi all,
Does Linux have any TCP/IP Task Offload support ?
If a network adapter can offload some of the TCP/IP tasks, is there a
support from Linux for such activity ?

Work for this is in progress. Patches can be found at:
ftp://ftp.inr.ac.ru/ip-routing/zerocopy-sendfile-*.dif
ftp://ftp.inr.ac.ru/ip-routing/README.zerocopy-sendfile

This site is not password-protected, I just downloaded the referenced
diff. Are you trying to download the above URL directly? You cannot...
URLs do not have wildcards in them. Download the following files:
ftp://ftp.inr.ac.ru/ip-routing/README.zerocopy-sendfile
ftp://ftp.inr.ac.ru/ip-routing/zerocopy-sendfile-001102.dif.gz

The site also used to require the use of passive-mode ftp, which might
be your problem.
You might want to try
ftp://ftp.funet.fi/pub/mirrors/ftp.inr.ac.ruk/ip-routing which is
probably a lot faster anyway.
great for me.
