> Subject: [PATCH v3 02/9] common/mlx5: query packet pacing rate table
> capabilities
>
> Query additional QoS packet pacing capabilities from HCA attributes:
> - packet_pacing_burst_bound: HW supports burst_upper_bound parameter
> - packet_pacing_typical_size: HW supports typical_packet_size parameter
> - packet_pacing_max_rate / packet_pacing_min_rate: rate range in kbps
> - packet_pacing_rate_table_size: number of HW rate table entries
>
> These capabilities are needed by the upcoming per-queue rate limiting feature
> to validate devarg values and report HW limits.
>
> Supported hardware:
> - ConnectX-6 Dx and later (different boards expose different subsets)
> - ConnectX-5 reports packet_pacing but not all extended fields
> - ConnectX-7/8 report the full capability set
> - BlueField-2 and later DPUs also report these capabilities
>
> Not supported:
> - ConnectX-4 Lx and earlier (no packet_pacing capability at all)
> - ConnectX-5 Ex may not report burst_bound or typical_size
