The command that retrieves the capability is: show port <port_id> rx_offload capabilities The command also retrieves a lot of other capabilities (RX_OFFLOAD_*) which are all added into a Flag. The Flag members correspond to NIC capability names so a convenience function that looks for the supported Flags in a testpmd output is also added. The NIC capability names (mentioned above) are copy-pasted from the Flag. Dynamic addition of Enum members runs into problems with typing (mypy doesn't know about the members) and documentation generation (Sphinx doesn't know about the members).

Not a critique of the code, just genuinely curious.
It's there just to mirror the flags in DPDK code.
