Re: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH] net/i40e: fix Rx packet statistics

Some packets are discarded by the NIC because they are larger than
the MTU, these packets should be counted as "RX error" instead of
"RX packet".

The register 'GL_RXERR1' can count above discarded packets.
This patch adds reading and calculation of the 'GL_RXERR1' counter
when reporting DPDK statistics.

It's a bit hard to understand the code for someone not familiar with the 
i40e stats. I think it needs careful review from i40e maintainers. A few 
questions below,

Did you test this with testpmd? Can you show an example of a test where 
these packets are now correctly accounted for?

I see there is also an RXERR2 register that catches other errors, does 
it need to be considered as well?

It is unusual to see you changing an offset to an int. You are expecting 
negative offsets?

rx_err1 is correct by datasheet but meaningless to a user. Suggest to 
find a more descriptive name, or document what it is, or tell the user 
to reference the datasheet.
