Hi Mark,
Yes I thought I did that change. Sorry once again.. making too many mistakes. Changed it . Thanks.
The MTU here is L3 MTU. Setting this will help in reducing the fragmented/multi-segmented packets and also in case we want to reduce the MTU below 1500, to support VXLAN or GRE tunnel for the packets in openstack and cloud environments.

Hi Souvik,
Why hardcode the values in the PMD_INIT_LOG?
Why not do the following: PMD_INIT_LOG(ERR, "MTU should be between %d and %d",
VIRTIO_MIN_RX_BUFSIZE,
VIRTIO_MAX_RX_PKTLEN);
That way, if the values that the macros evaluate to change, the log will update correspondingly.
Also, does 'MTU' in this context relate to the L2 or L3 MTU?
