rte_gso_segment decreased refcnt of pkt by one, but
it is wrong if pkt is external mbuf, pkt won't be
freed because of incorrect refcnt, the result is
application can't allocate mbuf from mempool because
mbufs in mempool are run out of.
One correct way is application should call
rte_pktmbuf_free after calling rte_gso_segment to free
pkt explicitly. rte_gso_segment must not handle it, this
should be responsibility of application.
This commit changed rte_gso_segment in functional behavior
and return value, so the application must take appropriate
actions according to return values, "ret < 0" means it
should free and drop 'pkt', "ret == 0" means 'pkt' isn't
GSOed but 'pkt' can be transmitted as a normal packet,
"ret > 0" means 'pkt' has been GSOed into two or multiple
segments, it should use "pkts_out" to transmit these
segments. The application must free 'pkt' after call
rte_gso_segment when return value isn't equal to 0.

packets in software. Note however, that GSO is implemented as a standalone
library, and not via a 'fallback' mechanism (i.e. for when TSO is unsupported
in the underlying hardware); that is, applications must explicitly invoke the
-GSO library to segment packets. The size of GSO segments ``(segsz)`` is
-configurable by the application.
+GSO library to segment packets, they also must call ``rte_pktmbuf_free()``
+to free mbuf GSO segments attached after calling ``rte_gso_segment()``.
+The size of GSO segments (``segsz``) is configurable by the application.
Limitations
-----------
#. Invoke the GSO segmentation API, ``rte_gso_segment()``.
+#. Call ``rte_pktmbuf_free()`` to free mbuf ``rte_gso_segment()`` segments.
+
#. If required, update the L3 and L4 checksums of the newly-created segments.
For tunneled packets, the outer IPv4 headers' checksums should also be
updated. Alternatively, the application may offload checksum calculation
* bpf: ``RTE_BPF_XTYPE_NUM`` has been dropped from ``rte_bpf_xtype``.
+* gso: Changed ``rte_gso_segment`` behaviour and return value:
+
+ * ``pkt`` is not saved to ``pkts_out[0]`` if not GSOed.
+ * Return 0 instead of 1 for the above case.
+ * ``pkt`` is not freed, no matter whether it is GSOed, leaving to the caller.
+
* acl: ``RTE_ACL_CLASSIFY_NUM`` enum value has been removed.
This enum value was not used inside DPDK, while it prevented to add new
classify algorithms without causing an ABI breakage.
