Additionally, it doesn't process IP fragment + * packets. + * + * Before calling rte_gso_segment(), applications must set proper ol_flags + * for the packet.

If rte_gso_segment() succceds, the PKT_TX_TCP_SEG + * flag is removed for all GSO segments and the input packet. + * + * Each of the newly-created GSO segments is organized as a two-segment + * MBUF, where the first segment is a standard MBUF, which stores a copy + * of packet header, and the second is an indirect MBUF which points to + * a section of data in the input packet. Since each GSO segment has + * multiple MBUFs (i.e. typically 2 MBUFs), the driver of the interface which + * the GSO segments are sent to should support transmission of multi-segment + * packets. + * + * If the input packet is GSO'd, its mbuf refcnt reduces by 1.
