Features not Supported by TX Vector PMD
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
TX vPMD only works when ``txq_flags`` is set to ``FM10K_SIMPLE_TX_FLAG``.
This means that it does not support TX multi-segment, VLAN offload or TX csum
offload. The following MACROs are used for these three features:
TX vPMD only works when offloads is set to 0

This means that it does not support any TX offload.
