[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v4] app/testpmd: do not enable Rx offloads by default
Moti Haimovsky

Tue Jan 30 10:00:32 CET 2018
Removed the hardcoded preconfigured Rx offload configuration from
testpmd and changed the Rx offload command line parameters from
disable to enable.
Testers who wish to use these offloads will now have to explicitly
write them in the command-line when running testpmd.
Motivation:
Some PMDs such at the mlx4 may not implement all the offloads.
After the offload API rework assuming no offload is enabled by default,
commit ce17eddefc20 ("ethdev: introduce Rx queue offloads API")
commit cba7f53b717d ("ethdev: introduce Tx queue offloads API") trying
to enable a not supported offload is clearly an error which will cause
configuration failing.
Considering that testpmd is an application to test the PMD, it should
not fail on a configuration which was not explicitly requested.
The behavior of this test application is then turned to an opt-in
model.

V4:
Fixed checkpatches warnings.
V3:
Updated documentation to reflect the change in the command-line parameters.
Updated testpmd help to also reflect the change in the command-line parameters.
V2:
Modified Rx offload command line parameters from disable to enable.
This way the user can choose the offload parameters to configure the
device with in a consistent manner.
