Currently it does not seems there is high demand for such flags from other
PMDs. If such demand will raise, we can discuss again on how to expose it
properly.
It is not PMD specific. It is all about where it runs? it will applicable for
any
PMD that runs low end hardwares where it need SW based Tx buffer
recycling(The NPU is different story as it has HW assisted mempool
manager).
Maybe, but I don't see other PMD which use those flags. Do you aware to any
plans to add such optimizations?
You are pushing for generic API which is currently used only by a single entity.
