[dpdk-stable] patch 'doc: clarify L3 Tx checksum 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 L3 Tx checksum prerequisite

[ upstream commit 9713e32914a23780aac00fd5b6435aa72e87b377 ]

Based on PKT_TX_IP_CKSUM definition the user needs
to fill l2_len and l3_len mbuf fields before issuing
HW Tx checksum request.

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