Behavior untouched; each marker records a known gap and the intended
fix so the next visit doesn't rediscover it: transient zero-sent
sendmmsg errors drop a whole run; the non-vnet Poll queue lacks the
post-wake drain loop; recvmmsg controllen resets touch every entry;
cached handshake packets flush one syscall each; the routines clamp in
activate() would blackhole surplus REUSEPORT sockets if it ever became
reachable; darwin WriteBatch burst-drops on EWOULDBLOCK.

- multi_coalesce/batch: the ordering contract now states what Flush
actually guarantees -- per-flow DATA order -- and names the two
shapes later data may legally overtake (pure ACKs by design, and
unparseable in-flow shapes as an accepted tradeoff).
- validVnetHdr claimed DATA_VALID makes the stack skip L4 checksum
verification; the tun write path ignores that bit entirely. What the
header buys is the absence of NEEDS_CSUM.
- tun_darwin Write said "only valid for single threaded use"; it is
concurrency-safe and concurrent callers exist.
- udp_coalesce eviction comment said "Seal it" but never sets sealed.
- recordCapability: note the gauges are process-global while the state
is per-socket (last writer wins).
- drop a stale tunReadBufSize reference.

decodeRead failures were silently swallowed; a kernel emitting an
unnegotiated GSO type would blackhole all tun traffic with nothing in
the logs. Debug-gated per the usual idiom so the happy path pays
nothing, which means plumbing the logger down through the offload
queueset.

gsoTypeFromProto returns GSO_NONE when the IP version nibble is
neither 4 nor 6, so a multi-fragment superpacket went out as one
silent jumbo GSO_NONE packet -- exactly the silent mis-emission the
geometry checks promise not to allow.

35596c7 added the udp-l4-ecn-rejected test but only the ECN mask, so
UDP_L4|ECN validated as plain UDP_L4. Mirror virtio_net_hdr_to_skb and
refuse ECN on anything but TCPV4/TCPV6.

pseudoSumIPv4/IPv6, foldOnceNoInvert, ipv4HdrChecksum (batch) and
foldComplement (tio/virtio) feed the virtio NEEDS_CSUM contract; a wrong
seed means every coalesced packet is silently dropped by the receiver
with nothing failing on our side. Check them against an independent
reference built from explicit RFC pseudo-header bytes -- deliberately
not the production checksum code -- including the carry/fold edge cases
and an end-to-end seed -> kernel-completion -> receiver-accepts
property.

The length checks were fishy on four counts: an empty hdr/transportHdr
with real payload returned nil (silent drop with a success signal); the
HdrLen/GSOSize/CsumStart uint16 conversions could wrap unchecked;
nothing verified transportHdr covers csum_start+csum_offset, so the
kernel's NEEDS_CSUM write could land in payload bytes; and there was no
total-size bound even though every length field involved is 16-bit.
Malformed geometry is now a real error, and a single 65535 total-length
guard makes all the u16 conversions exact.

GSOSize came from len(pays[0]) while the iovec build skips empty
fragments, so a leading empty fragment emitted a TSO/USO header with
gso_size == 0 -- virtio_net_hdr_to_skb rejects that with EINVAL and the
whole superpacket is lost. Compute gso_size from the first non-empty
fragment and use the non-empty count to decide superpacket vs plain.

Write took &buf[0] before calling writeWithScratch, so the len==0 guard
in the helper could never run -- a zero-length buffer panicked on the
index instead of returning. Hoist the guard above the indexing and fold
writeWithScratch into Write since it was the only caller and duplicated
the iovec setup.

TUN_F_TSO_ECN is negotiated, so once ECN feedback flows the kernel hands
us TSO superpackets typed TCPV4|GSO_ECN (CWR set). protoFromGSOType
treated the qualifier bit as an unknown type and the read path dropped
every such superpacket - a latent bug that only fires when a congested
hop CE-marks the flow, exactly when drops hurt most. The segmenter
already handles CWR (first segment only); just mask the bit.

Multi-disciplinary correctness review of the batched tun / GSO-GRO / sendmmsg
rework. Each fix has a regression test; the merged tree builds on
linux/darwin/openbsd/windows/freebsd/netbsd, vets clean, passes the unit and
e2e suites, and is -race clean.
Critical:
- C1 zero-length inner UDP datagram no longer panics the process (remote DoS):
the UDP coalescer routes payLen==0 to passthrough instead of seeding a GSO
slot, and WriteGSO skips empty payload iovecs as defense in depth.
- C2 segmenter no longer corrupts inner headers when gsoSize < headerLen: the
L3+L4 header is snapshotted once and each segment stamped from the copy,
replacing the destructive overlapping in-place slide (SegmentTCP + SegmentUDP).
High:
- H1 applyOuterECN updates the IPv4 header checksum (RFC 1624 incremental) when
folding outer CE into the inner ToS, so passthrough packets are no longer
dropped by the peer stack.
- H2 the GRO reject path caps the borrowed RX segment ([:n:n]) so a reject can
no longer overrun into the next coalesced segment's Nebula header. Note:
oversized ICMPv6 rejects that need >16B beyond the segment are now refused
rather than sent under GRO (safe; see TOFIX.md for the scratch-buffer follow-up).
- H3 WriteBatch falls back to per-packet WriteTo for a chunk when writeSockaddr
fails, so one bad-family destination costs only its own packet, not the batch.
- H4 UserDevice.Readers returns N distinct queue wrappers with private buffers
(sharing the pipes) so concurrent readers no longer race/overwrite borrowed
packet bytes.
- H5 Poll.Close / Offload.Close no longer null t.fd (matching master's
tunFile.Close), removing the data race with a concurrent readOne load.
Medium/Low:
- M1 the UDP GSO 127-segment gate moved from kernel >=5.5 to >=6.9 (the real
UDP_MAX_SEGMENTS 64->128 threshold), avoiding EINVAL + per-packet fallback on
5.5-6.8 kernels.
- M2 NewMultiQueueReader replays the offload mask newTun actually negotiated
instead of the TSO-only mask, so adding a queue no longer disables USO
device-wide; the advertised USO capability derives from the same mask.
- M3 the shutdown eventfd is closed in pollQueueSet.Close / offloadQueueSet.Close
(double-close guarded), fixing the per-lifecycle fd leak.
- M4 dual-stack ECN selects the cmsg by address family, not socket family: RX
parseRecvCmsg reads both IP_TOS and IPV6_TCLASS; TX writeEntryCmsg stamps
IP_TOS for v4/v4-mapped dests and IPV6_TCLASS for v6 (on-host verified).
- L1 newPoll no longer closes the fd on failure (matching newOffload), removing
the double-close on QueueSet.Add error.
