If I understand correctly, the statement is a bit misleading
since it should be a bit mask of RTE_PTYPE_* defines. Not
exactly one RTE_PTYPE_*.

What is MAC_IPV4_UDP_PAYLOAD? Do you mean ETH_IPV4_UDP_PAYLOAD?

You must define which mempool is used in the case.

Add one more empty line to have two before the next sectoin.

Do not mix variable declaration and code.
It is better to give the variable some sensible name.
Otherwise else branch code is hard to read.

> +		if (ret <= 0) {

May be I'm missing something, but nothing prevetns a driver/HW
to support both protocol-based and fixed-length split.
So, ability to support protocol based split should be treated
as a request to do it. It must be based on rx_seg->proto_hdr
content (for all segments).

Also nothing should prevent to mix protocol and fixed-length
split. I.e. split just after UDP in the first segment,
40 bytes in the second segment, everything else in the third.

In theory, the funciton could fail since input arguments
differ. So, it should be handled.

IMHO it should be ==, not &. I think that
rte_eth_buffer_split_get_supported_hdr_ptypes() should define
points at which split could happen and we should match the
point exactly.

Why? It is looks really strange that it is defined here.
