Thanks for your rapid answer!

BTW, every time I run qemu I see this error message:

    TUNSETOFFLOAD ioctl() failed: Invalid argument

It is caused by the piece of code at the end of net/tap-linux.c:

    if (ioctl(fd, TUNSETOFFLOAD, offload) != 0) {
        offload &= ~TUN_F_UFO;
        if (ioctl(fd, TUNSETOFFLOAD, offload) != 0) {
            fprintf(stderr, "TUNSETOFFLOAD ioctl() failed: %s\n",
                    strerror(errno));
        }
    }

Isn't there a way to detect whether the kernel supports the TUNSETOFFLOAD ioctl 
at all?
