- rx-queue GET API fits in nicely with what you described yesterday [1]. At the moment I'm a bit unsure because the SET api you described yesterday sounded per-rx-queue to me. But the GET api here is per-page-pool based. Maybe the distinction doesn't matter? Maybe you're thinking they're unrelated APIs?
Right, they aren't unrelated but I do somehow prefer the more flexible model where each object type has its own API and the objects can refer to each other. I think there's too much of a risk that the mapping between page pools to queues will become n:m and then having them tied together will be a problem.
