> >      files in librte_pmd_ixgbe/ixgbe/ are shared with FreeBSD and AFAIU should not

> >    - Remove unused rsc_en field in ixgbe_rx_queue struct.
> >      Thanks to Shiweixian <shiweixian at huawei.com> for pointing this out.
> >    - Kill the non-vector scattered Rx callback and use an appropriate LRO callback
> >      instead. This is possible because work against HW in both LRO and scattered RX
> >      cases is the same. Note that this patch touches the ixgbevf PMD as well.
> >    - Use LRO bulk callback when scattered (non-LRO) Rx is requested and parameters
> >      allow bulk allocation.

> >   ixgbe: Rename yy_rsc_xx -> yy_sc/scattered_rx_xx
