Sorry my bad. The mbuf size has been accidentally changed to 3000. After fixing this by setting mbuf size to 2048, multi-segment mbuf still doesn't work. I was trying to send 2500-byte packets to the target system and was expecting to see two-segment mbuf chain), but got errors on it.

The dpdk version is 2.0.0. I have enabled jumbo-frame and enable_scatter for the port.
