Just to be on the right way: What are the basics to get GRO working
with a ConnectX (not 2 or 3) card in 2044 MTU datagram mode?
- enable GRO with ethtool.
- Activate Coalescing with ethtool? If yes how?
GRO is SW element of the network stack, so the HCA doesn't matter, you
need IPoIB to support that correct and enable it with ethtool

In addition to what Or just wrote,
GRO currently doesn't work on ipoib interfaces, that according to bad
handling mac address that are not 6 bytes (we have plans to fix that in
the near future), that is the reason you don't see 64k packets on
tcpdump (like you see in LRO).
you have few options:
1. use old kernels and enable LRO (which works fine with ipoib)
2. use CM mode instead of UD, that probably will improve the performance.
