[dpdk-stable] patch 'doc: clarify TSO Tx offload prerequisite' has been queued to LTS release 17.11.5

[Yongseok Koh]

Hi,

FYI, your patch has been queued to LTS release 17.11.5

Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 12/01/18. So please
shout if anyone has objections.

Also note that after the patch there's a diff of the upstream commit vs the patch applied
to the branch. If the code is different (ie: not only metadata diffs), due for example to
a change in context or macro names, please double check it.

Thanks.

Yongseok

Subject: [PATCH] doc: clarify TSO Tx offload prerequisite

[ upstream commit 25b85ae5db74820aab71e07f88e01c3d93932eff ]

Based on the PKT_TX_TCP_SEG definition,
the application needs to update PKT_TX_IPV4 or PKT_TX_IPV6
based on IPV4 or IPV6 packet and PKT_TX_IP_CKSUM ol_flags
to enable Tx TSO offload.

Fixes: dad1ec72a377 ("doc: document NIC features")
