What about other events?

What will it mean if the event is not related to queues?

Are you going to add a new callback parameter each time
the application needs info about a new event?

In my opinion, it is a very bad idea.
As done in ethdev, you should add a query function specific to the event.

Example: https://git.dpdk.org/dpdk/commit/?id=bc70e5594838
Here, when a threshold is reached, an event RTE_ETH_EVENT_RX_AVAIL_THRESH
is fired, and the application can get more info about what happened
by calling the function rte_eth_rx_avail_thresh_query().
Look at the parameters description:
"
@param[inout] queue_id
 On input starting Rx queue index to search from.
 If the queue_id is bigger than maximum queue ID of the port,
 search is started from 0. So that application can keep calling
 this function to handle all pending events with a simple increment
 of queue_id on the next call.
 On output if return value is 1, Rx queue index with the event pending.
@param[out] avail_thresh
 Location for available descriptors threshold of the found Rx queue.
