Public bug reported:
While debugging a bug 1945868 I found something that I think is a separate
issue to that original report, hence this new bug.
I found the virtio-net behavior changing in an unexpected way in
5.4.0-89-generic that is currently in Focal-proposed.
1. 5.4.0-86-generic
$ sudo ethtool --show-features enp1s0 | grep large
large-receive-offload: off
$ sudo ethtool --features enp1s0 lro on
$ sudo ethtool --show-features enp1s0 | grep large
large-receive-offload: on
$ sudo ethtool --features enp1s0 lro off
$ sudo ethtool --show-features enp1s0 | grep large
large-receive-offload: off

3. 5.4.0-89-generic
$ sudo ethtool --show-features enp1s0 | grep large
large-receive-offload: off [fixed]
$ sudo ethtool --features enp1s0 lro on
Cannot change large-receive-offload

I've installed/uninstalled the guest kernel twice but the above behavior
remained consistent and seemed to be only influenced by the new kernel.
The used guest config is the default that falls out of uvt-kvm, that means in
regard to this bug:
<os>
<type arch='x86_64' machine='pc-q35-focal'>hvm</type>
</os>
...
<interface type='network'>
<mac address='52:54:00:b2:c2:2a'/>
<source network='default'/>
<model type='virtio'/>
<address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x01' slot='0x00'
function='0x0'/>
</interface>
Virt-Stack is qemu 1:4.2-3ubuntu6.17 and libvirt 6.0.0-0ubuntu8.14 from current
Focal-updates.
