Hi Keith,

I found the root cause for the problem " requested Tx offloads 0x8000 doesn't 
match Tx offloads capabilities 0xe" in EC2 instances.
The DPDK ENA driver does not have "DEV_TX_OFFLOAD_MULTI_SEGS" TX offload 
capability in TX offloads capabilities and in Pktgen when Jumbo frame is 
enabled, the TX-offload adds " DEV_TX_OFFLOAD_MULTI_SEGS".
 
Is "DEV_TX_OFFLOAD_MULTI_SEGS" necessary when the Jumbo frame is enable in the 
Pktgen or can we first check if the Device supports the offload or not and then 
add " DEV_TX_OFFLOAD_MULTI_SEGS"?
 
What is the mechanism of "DEV_TX_OFFLOAD_MULTI_SEGS" when enabling Jumbo frames?

Thanks,
Anand

Please update to the latest Pktgen 21.02.0 with the latest DPDK version. If you 
can not upgrade then please look at the latest version as some work for jumbo 
frames was done a few months ago.
