Hi Venky,

Thanks for you comments.

>>I for one would prefer that the changes not really modify any files in the 
>>librte_pmd_ixgbe/ixgbe directory

With this restriction it is gonna be little bit difficult but still feasible.

The solution would be after calling ixgbe_init_shared_code in
ixgbe_ethdev.c, if the config is for loopback operation, we
immediately replace the callbacks of:

mac->ops.get_link_capabilities
mac->ops.check_link
mac->ops.setup_link

And of course the implementation of these callbacks can be in a new
src file under librte_pmd_ixgbe, thus keep the baseline untouched.

Sounds like a plan?

thx &
rgds,
-qinglai
