[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v4 2/3] ethdev: copy device configuration earlier

[Pablo de Lara]

In rte_eth_dev_configure(), device configuration was copied
after requesting the device information, to check the
maximum number of RX/TX queues. Since this number may change
depending on the device configuration, the memcpy of it
has to be performed before requesting the device information.
