Hello all,

I think http://dpdk.org/dev/patchwork/patch/5389/ disabled support of indirect buffers by accident.
Am I missing something ? Is there a reason why this was disabled ?

I tested it today and it seems to work fine.
If you have no objection, could we re-enable it ? 
It is a very useful feature as it enables using more descriptors than limited by the queue size.

Thanks,

- Pierre
