Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH v5 1/3] mbuf:redefine three TX ol_flags
Date: Tue,  2 Dec 2014 23:06:05 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1417532767-1309-2-git-send-email-jijiang.liu@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1417532767-1309-1-git-send-email-jijiang.liu@intel.com>

The reason of redefining the PKT_TX_IPV4 and the PKT_TX_IPV6 is listed below,
It will avoid to send a packet with a bad info:
  - we receive a Ether/IP6/IP4/L4/data packet
  - the driver sets PKT_RX_IPV6_HDR
  - the stack decapsulates IP6
  - the stack sends the packet, it has the PKT_TX_IPV6 flag but it's an IPv4 packet.
