net/i40e changes recommended Rx ring_size after device start NIC is Intel X710 It does not make sense since all Rx queues are typically already configured and started. It happens because of link_speeds condition above: 790 »·······} else { 3791 »·······»·······/* For X710 */ 3792 »·······»·······dev_info->speed_capa = RTE_ETH_LINK_SPEED_1G | RTE_ETH_LINK_SPEED_10G; 3793 »·······»·······dev_info->default_rxportconf.nb_queues = 1; 3794 »·······»·······dev_info->default_txportconf.nb_queues = 1; 3795 »·······»·······if (dev->data->dev_conf.link_speeds & RTE_ETH_LINK_SPEED_10G) { 3796 »·······»·······»·······dev_info->default_rxportconf.ring_size = 512; 3797 »·······»·······»·······dev_info->default_txportconf.ring_size = 256; 3798 »·······»·······} else { 3799 »·······»·······»·······dev_info->default_rxportconf.ring_size = 256; 3800 »·······»·······»·······dev_info->default_txportconf.ring_size = 256; 3801 »·······»·······} 3802 »·······} which are updated on device start in i40e_apply_link_speed(). Before start default_rxportconf.ring_size is 256, after start it is 512.
