          <pre class="bz_comment_text">Currently, the documentation of RTE_MBUF_F_TX_UDP_CKSUM in
<a href="https://doc.dpdk.org/api/rte__mbuf__core_8h.html#ada511d6f30184b374ba2248c26af8ede">https://doc.dpdk.org/api/rte__mbuf__core_8h.html#ada511d6f30184b374ba2248c26af8ede</a>
is very sparse:

<span class="quote">> UDP cksum of TX pkt. computed by NIC. </span >

I think it should mention which fields should be set.
Some bug reports e.g. <a href="https://github.com/amzn/amzn-drivers/issues/176">https://github.com/amzn/amzn-drivers/issues/176</a>
<a href="https://github.com/amzn/amzn-drivers/issues/79">https://github.com/amzn/amzn-drivers/issues/79</a> states that you need to set
m3_len, total_length, dgram_cksum to the pseudo-header checksum etc. (not sure
about this).

What is the actual requirement of that flag, and how should the documentation
be edited?
