Pawel,
I generally test things I've just built using virtio devices and calling
rte_eth_tx_queue_setup() more than once for a given queue id fails.
However, it seems that most PMDs allow re-allocating device queues while
virtio does not (xenvirt also seems to lack this functionality), so I
don't think my approach here is right. I'll remove this patch when I
send the next version of this series.
Thanks,
Eric
