I have an application trying to read packets from a "NetXtreme II BCM57810" NIC but jumbo frames seem to be silently ignored. I read from the documentation that the bnx2x PMD doesn't allow MTU update nor does it support RX scatter gather: is that the reason why I can't get jumbo frames to work on that NIC? Follow up questions are: - Is there anything I can do to receive Jumbo frames? - What is exactly RX scatter gather? - Do you have a plan to fix this in any upcoming release? Thanks
