I see, it seems we found the misunderstanding:

For dummy device, I indeed was testing only tx part without
a server, in my understanding it better approximates an actual
fast NIC. I don't think dummy is even capable to pass the data,
so was thinking that it's given that there is no receive side,
and so no "msg_zerocopy -r".

For localhost testing (with the hack), there was a server
verifying data.
