Hi,
  Not sure why cover letter wasn=E2=80=99 t appended.
In some cases we require all packets (including the ones that ixgbe
considers as Rx length errors) to be received on backplane ixgbe port. The
proposed API sets the requisite SBP bit for ixgbe to receive Rx length
error packets.
If this is required more generically for all adapters, the other approach
can be to allocate  a bit in =E2=80=98struct rte_eth_rxmode=E2=80=99 to dis=
able
rx_length_checking on the port. Please let me know if that is preferred or
if more info is needed

Thanks,
Shweta
