Subject: Re: [dpdk-stable] [PATCH] net/mlx5: fix wrong segmented packet in Rx

Hi, Jiawei

Thank you for the clarification. I missed the point that we have updated elts array 
with new allocated mbufs and are not able to retry packet building anymore.
Very good catch, thank you!  Could you, please, add this extra explanation
to the  commit message and send the v2 ?

With best regards, 
Slava
