Description

GRO is a SW-based offloading technique that used to reassemble small packets into larger ones, therefore, it can potentially reduce the per-packet processing overheads. This technique has the potential to save amount of CPU cycles, which is essential to achieve high speed network processing.

The patch should utilize [DPDK's Generic Receive Offload Library](https://doc.dpdk.org/guides/prog_guide/generic_receive_offload_lib.html) to implement the offloading, and one also needs to have a benchmark to test the performance gain by adopting this technique.
