Hi,
FYI, your patch has been queued to stable release 24.11.7
Note it hasn't been pushed to http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk-stable yet.
It will be pushed if I get no objections before 06/13/26. 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. This will indicate if there was any rebasing
needed to apply to the stable branch. If there were code changes for rebasing
(ie: not only metadata diffs), please double check that the rebase was
correctly done.
Queued patches are on a temporary branch at:
https://github.com/bluca/dpdk-stable
This queued commit can be viewed at:
https://github.com/bluca/dpdk-stable/commit/72abe567b0a1574df2e98f18ef9b94b9a1e4d0eb
Thanks.

Subject: [PATCH] net/pcap: advertise Tx multi segment
[ upstream commit 3c02489e8b1872c6afa5abc1d24abe17fc2ed52a ]
The driver supports multi-segment transmit, but the did not set
the offload flag. Therefore applications would not know about
that capability.
