Load a profile which supports GTP and store backup profile:
However, the Rx statistics, when calling `rte_eth_stats_get` incorrectly
shows it as received.
+RX/TX statistics may be incorrect when register overflowed
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The rx_bytes/tx_bytes statistics register is 48 bit length.
+Although this limitation is enlarged to 64 bit length on the software side,
+but there is no way to detect if the overflow occurred more than once.
+So rx_bytes/tx_bytes statistics data is correct when statistics are
+updated at least once between two overflows.

VF & TC max bandwidth setting
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
kernel driver, which don't want to use the TPID.
So PMD reports warning to clarify what is changed by writing global register.
+Cloud Filter
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+When programming cloud filters for IPv4/6_UDP/TCP/SCTP with SRC port only or DST port only,
+it will make any cloud filter using inner_vlan or tunnel key invalid. Default configuration will be
+recovered only by NIC core reset.

High Performance of Small Packets on 40GbE NIC
----------------------------------------------
As i40e PMD supports both 16 and 32 bytes RX descriptor sizes, and 16 bytes size can provide helps to high performance of small packets.
Configuration of ``CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_I40E_16BYTE_RX_DESC`` in config files can be changed to use 16 bytes size RX descriptors.
+Input set requirement of each pctype for FDIR
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Each PCTYPE can only have one specific FDIR input set at one time.
+For example, if creating 2 rte_flow rules with different input set for one PCTYPE,
+it will fail and return the info "Conflict with the first rule's input set",
+which means the current rule's input set conflicts with the first rule's.
+Remove the first rule if want to change the input set of the PCTYPE.
