Hello Helin,

I tried to send jumbo frames to a i40e card. However, I observed that 
all frames are dropped. Moreover, set_mtu function is not implemented on 
i40e PMD.

Done.

=> Frame correctly received on port 0, but never forwarded or xmit on 
port 1.

Does a mtu_set function will be developed soon in order to support jumbo 
frame ?
