Hi, William
After I checked some doubtable points, I think performance issue lies in tpacket_v3 kernel side implementation, so I fall back it to original one in case userspace-tso-enabled is set to true. V6 has been sent out, please review v6.

Right, because tap does not use the tpacket_v3 mmap packet, so it works fine.
