> Subject: [dpdk-dev] [RFC] ethdev: add min/max MTU to device info
>
> This addresses the usability issue raised by OVS at DPDK Userspace summit.
> It adds general min/max mtu into device info. For compatiablity, and to save
> space, it fits in a hole in existing structure.
>
> The initial version sets max mtu to normal Ethernet, it is up to PMD to set
> larger value if it supports Jumbo frames.
>
> Fixing the drivers to use this is trivial and can be done by 18.11.
> Already have some of the patches done.
