Not so much critical to me but the entry has a field having repeating name. priv->drop_hrxq.hrxq and priv->drop_hrxq.rxq Sounds still confusing... > > > +/** > > > + * Release a drop Rx queue Verbs object. > > > + * > > > + * @param dev > > > + * Pointer to Ethernet device. > > > + * @param rxq > > > + * Pointer to the drop Verbs Rx queue. > > > + * > > > + * @return > > > + * The Verbs object initialised, NULL otherwise and rte_errno is set. > > > + */ > > > +void > > > +mlx5_rxq_ibv_drop_release(struct rte_eth_dev *dev, struct mlx5_rxq_ibv > > > *rxq) > > > > If rxq for drop is saved in priv->drop.rxq, then why does it have to get rxq > > pointer as an argument?

However, the assumption is there's only one drop queue while the regular ones have multiple instances. > Priv is used as a storage place which is only access through > *_{new,get,release} functions. Yes, that's what I'm telling you. *_{new,get,release}() accesses priv, then why the pointer (which is saved in priv) is needed as an argument? > This is also to keep a consistency between regular hrxqs, and drop hrxq also. Not sure why that consistency has to be kept. int mlx5_rxq_release(struct rte_eth_dev *dev, uint16_t idx); int mlx5_hrxq_release(struct rte_eth_dev *dev, struct mlx5_hrxq *hxrq); mlx5_rxq_release() takes index as the instances are stored in an array and mlx5_hrxq_release() takes pointer as the instances are stored in a list. Then, what if there's only one instance and no need to search? Not taking such an argument sounds more consistent...
