  rte_validate_tx_offload() is used in Tx prepare callbacks
(RTE_LIBRTE_ETHDEV_DEBUG only) to check Tx offloads consistency.
Requirement that packet headers should not be fragmented is not
documented and unclear where it comes from except
rte_net_intel_cksum_prepare() functions which relies on it.

It could be NIC vendor specific driver or hardware limitation, but,
if so, it should be documented and checked in corresponding Tx
prepare callbacks.

May be the check should be done in rte_net_intel_cksum_prepare()
under RTE_LIBRTE_ETHDEV_DEBUG only. Mainly I'd like to get feedback
on where the limitation comes from and idea to remove it from
rte_validate_tx_offload().

Ping.

Do 2 weeks without reply mean that it looks good and I should send 
non-RCF version?

Andrew.

Just send the non-RFC patch as it seems most do not even look at the RFC’s anyway.

Looks good to me, though extra-testing would be needed.
