It also provides updates to PMD implementations\nfor ixgbe, i40e and IGB devices so that these variables are populated\nfor use when retrieving device info.\n\nThis series was tested with OVS DPDK and functions as expected for the\ndrivers listed below. But a wider selection of PMD drivers would have to\nadopt this to ensure jumbo frames functionality remains for drivers not\nmodified in the series.\n\nThere is also ongoing discussion in [2] regarding overhead to be\nconsidered with MTU and how this may change from device to device, this\nseries uses existing overhead assumptions.\n\nThis series was previously posted as an RFC in [3], this revision\nremoves RFC status and implements changes received in feedback.\n\n[1] http://mails.dpdk.org/archives/dev/2018-September/110959.html\n[2] http://mails.dpdk.org/archives/dev/2019-February/124457.html\n[3] http://mails.dpdk.org/archives/dev/2019-February/124938.html\n\nIan Stokes (5):\n net/i40e: set min and max MTU for i40e devices\n net/i40e: set min and max MTU for i40e VF devices\n net/ixgbe: set min and max MTU for ixgbe devices\n net/ixgbe: set min and max MTU for ixgbe VF devices\n net/e1000: set min and max MTU for igb devices\n\nStephen Hemminger (1):\n ethdev: add min/max MTU to device info\n\n doc/guides/rel_notes/deprecation.rst | 12 ------------\n doc/guides/rel_notes/release_19_05.rst | 8 +++++++-\n drivers/net/e1000/e1000_ethdev.h | 6 ++++++\n drivers/net/e1000/igb_ethdev.c | 7 +++++--\n drivers/net/i40e/i40e_ethdev.c | 2 ++\n drivers/net/i40e/i40e_ethdev_vf.c | 2 ++\n drivers/net/ixgbe/ixgbe_ethdev.c | 7 +++++--\n drivers/net/ixgbe/ixgbe_ethdev.h | 3 +++\n lib/librte_ethdev/Makefile | 2 +-\n lib/librte_ethdev/meson.build | 2 +-\n lib/librte_ethdev/rte_ethdev.c | 7 +++++++\n lib/librte_ethdev/rte_ethdev.h | 2 ++\n 12 files changed, 41 insertions(+), 19 deletions(-)" }
