This was this approach taken in the initial patch set to add bnxt
vector mode support,
however based on feedback the current approach was used instead. That discussion
can be found here:
http://patches.dpdk.org/patch/53683/
If mark support could be treated as a receive offload, it would be
possible to choose
the non-vector receive handler based on whether mark is enabled. Adding a kvargs
option to disable vector mode might be another possibility. Otherwise,
a build-time
configuration option does seem to be useful.
LGTM... with the above:
