Hi Stephen,

The mechanism is fine, however I would be against OS specific code in 
abstracted drivers. If "has_msix" was a helper function in eal (and suitably 
renamed) we could then add a FreeBSD equivalent implementation. A less 
favourable solution would be conditional 
compilation(RTE_EXEC_ENV_LINUXAPP/BSDPAPP) around the above function.

Thanks,
Alan
