[PATCH v2 1/4] ethdev: introduce IP reassembly offload

2022-01-20 Thread Akhil Goyal
IP Reassembly is a costly operation if it is done in software. The operation becomes even more costlier if IP fragments are encrypted. However, if it is offloaded to HW, it can considerably save application cycles. Hence, a new offload RTE_ETH_RX_OFFLOAD_IP_REASSEMBLY is introduced in ethdev for d
