Public bug reported:

Hello! My problem is that I can’t seem to disable offloading of various
network operations (checksumming in particular) on my network adapter:

$ sudo ethtool -K eth0 rx off
Cannot set device rx csum settings: Operation not supported

According to hwinfo, my adapter uses the atl1e driver:

72: None 00.0: 10701 Ethernet
  [Created at net.124]
  Unique ID: usDW.ndpeucax6V1
  Parent ID: rBUF.1owu3FJlCU9
  SysFS ID: /class/net/eth0
  SysFS Device Link: /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1c.5/0000:02:00.0
  Hardware Class: network interface
  Model: "Ethernet network interface"
  Driver: "ATL1E"
  Driver Modules: "atl1e"
  Device File: eth0
  HW Address: 00:22:15:95:14:b8
  Link detected: yes
  Config Status: cfg=new, avail=yes, need=no, active=unknown
  Attached to: #32 (Ethernet controller)

I’m not quite familiar enough with kernel development to figure out the
exact situation, but I notice a patch exists that claims to enable this
feature; the commit ac936929092dc6a5409b627c4c67305ab9b626b3 should
enable one to find it. I can’t tell if this is applied and doesn’t work
or if it’s not part of our kernels.
