Hi Xiaolong,
Mostly looks good, only there are a few comments on minor issues, can you please

Can you please add .ini file too?

Minor issue, but can you please keep close the .*ARG defines and this structure,
either move this up or move defines down just above this struct?

Can this variable be const?

What do you think documenting the only single queue supported limitation?

According coding convention it should be:
static void
remove_xdp_program(struct pmd_internals *internals)
{
There is a usage of mixture, can you please update them according convention?

At this point we don't know if the user provided a "if_name" value, needs a way
to confirm mandantory devargs provided before continue.

why not "pmd.net.af_xdp"?

Is "-lelf" still required?
