Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH] doc: add note for txqflags in testpmd UG
Date: Wed,  1 Apr 2015 13:10:11 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1427890211-30148-1-git-send-email-pablo.de.lara.guarch@intel.com> (raw)

Since txqflags is now set from the default rx/tx configuration,
depending on the PMD, it might not be 0.
Therefore, user has to overwrite it with --txqflags 0.
