            Bug ID: 1621
           Summary: In packets provided by the PMD, some flags are missing
           Product: DPDK
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal
         Component: ethdev
          Assignee: dev@dpdk.org
          Reporter: nandinipersad361@gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

Description:
In packets provided by the PMD, some flags are missing. The application does
not have access to information provided by the hardware (packet is broadcast,
packet is multicast, packet is IPv4 and so on).

Implication:
The ol_flags field in the rte_mbuf structure is not correct and should not be
used.

Resolution/Workaround:
The application has to parse the Ethernet header itself to get the information,
which is slower.

Affected Environment/Platform:
All.

Driver/Module:
Poll Mode Driver (PMD).
