[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] net/mlx5: txq_inline_min not set for ConnectX-5 adapters

[Slava Ovsiienko]

Hi, David

Yes, thank you for the patch, acked.

The "txq_inline_min" value was not set for ConnectX-5 to 0 as default.
At the TX queue setup time the "txq_inline_min" is checked against MLX5_ARG_UNSET 
and default value 0 is set:

txq_set_params()
...
inlen_mode = (config->txq_inline_min == MLX5_ARG_UNSET) ?
                     0 : (unsigned int)config->txq_inline_min;

So, there should be no negative backwards. Did you observe any?

WBR, Slava
