If max rx packet length is smaller then MTU + Ether overhead, that will

Update the MTU size according to the max rx packet and Ether overhead.

First of all I'm not sure that we need to handle 0 value
separately. Or it should be checked separately and trigger
an error since it is a driver mis-behaviour.


Agree. Most probably we can drop it, "dev_info.max_mtu != UINT16_MAX" covers the case driver doesn't provide any value.

If kept, it should be compared vs 0 explicitly in accordance
with DPDK coding style.

Alignment looks misleading. Either two tabs or just 4 spaces.

Is it expected side effect that re-configure always resets
previously set MTU. I.e.:
    configure -> set_mtu -> start -> stop -> re-configure
and set MTU is lost.


This is the problem of two APIs updating same/related values, when device re-configure with a given 'max_rx_pkt_len', can we know if the intentions is update to the value to new provided 'max_rx_pkt_len' or not?

For this case if user want to keep the MTU value, can read the MTU from device first and set 'max_rx_pkt_len' according it.

And we can reduce to updating the MTU in the configure() only when JUMBO frame offload is requested, that should be when the 'max_rx_pkt_len' is valid only.
