Hi,
I don't understand the semantics of these two methods (rte_eth_rx_burst
and rte_eth_rx_queue_count).
For rte_eth_rx_burst with burst of B.
* Does that mean it will not return until it receive at least B
packets? or it just returns with whatever packets that are in the
NIC's queue?
* Does that mean it will wait at least x clocks before returning 0 to
B packets?
For rte_eth_rx_queue_count:
* Does it go to the NIC and poll the # filled entries at its queue? if
yes, how much is its overhead?
* Do we need to call rte_eth_rx_burst (or similar methods) to make it
updated?
Regards
