Hi Shahaf,

As far as I can see patch does a few things:
1- Convert rxmode bitfields usage to rxmode offloads usage.
2- Apply some config options to port config and add some port config checks.
3- Adding device advertised capability checks for some offloads.

Would you mind separate 2 and 3 to their own patches, with that 1 should be
straightforward and 2 & 3 will be easy to review.


And is this update tested with PMDs both support new offload method and old
offload method?

Thanks,
ferruh

Not related to this patch, but since you are touching these, what is the
difference between DEV_RX_OFFLOAD_VLAN_EXTEND and DEV_RX_OFFLOAD_QINQ_STRIP ?

rte_eth_rxmode bitfields to "offloads" conversion is mostly straightforward, but
is above kind of modifications part of this conversion or are you adding missing
checks?

I would prefer making only conversion related changes in this patch, and extra
improvements in other patch.

Is this required for converting bitfield to offloads usage?

Same for all occurrence of these updates.

So you are updating port config as well as testpmd internal configuration, again
I guess this is not related to conversion to offloads usage.

This also adding another layer of check if device advertise requested
capability, this is an improvement independent from conversion, can you please
separate into its own patch?

This is removing testpmd local config check, just to double check if all places
that updates this local config covered to update device config variable?

And do we still need testpmd tx_ol_flags after these changes?

There is a global config option in testpmd, for all ports. Previous log was
print based on that config option, but now you are printing the value of first port.

I believe it is wrong to display only first port values, either log can be
updated to say testpmd default configs, or remove completely, or print for all
ports, what do you think?

Is comment correct?
Flag has two meaning I guess,
1) Ignore bitfield values for port based offload configuration.
2) For rxq, use rx_conf.offloads field.

testpmd is still using port based offload (rte_eth_rxmode) but "offloads"
variable instead of bitfields, right? queue specific ones are copy of port configs.
