[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v4] net/tap: perform proto field update for tun only

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v4] net/tap: perform proto field update for tun only

[Vipin Varghese]

The TX function is shared between TAP and TUN PMD. Checking TUN-TAP
type field will ensure the TAP PMD will always have protocol field
as 0.

Changes in V4:
- convert comparision with MACRO - Keith Wiles
- add LOG err for tun using set MAC - Ophir Munk

Changes in V3:

- add space for comment in struct - Ophir Munk
- pass type field into eth_dev_tap_create - Ophir Munk
- replace with enum value for type - Ophir Munk
- return as 'not supported' for mac_set - Vipin Varghese

Changes in V2:
- updated in comment wording - Keith Wiles
- remove debug print from tx code - Keith Wiles

I re-did a v5 for this patch yesterday and it has already been merged into rc5.
https://dpdk.org/dev/patchwork/patch/40352/

@vipin, can you please check if the merged patch is good, and if is there any
diff with what you have sent here?

Thanks,
