I agree we should change the API.
Let's open a new thread to discuss it with a wider audience.

The whole CRC strip flag notion is backwards. It really should of been
a bit set if driver allows preserving CRC.

Since changing the ABI is not possible right now;
the ethdev core ought to log a warning whenever driver is registered
without CRC_STRIP flag.

Or is lack of CRC_STRIP in offload flags implying that driver can
do strip and not stripping?

Applied, thanks

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2] net/tap: add CRC stripping capability

2018-02-13 Thread Ophir Munk 
CRC stripping is executed in the kernel outside of TAP PMD scope.
There is no prevention that the TAP PMD will report on Rx CRC
stripping capability.
In the corrupted code, TAP PMD did not report on this capability.
The fix enables TAP PMD to report that Rx CRC stripping is supported.
