OK, I will add these explanations to the commit log in v3. The default values in the Linux driver are actually the ones before this modification. This parameter controls the number of RX descriptors fetched in a single batch. Tuning this value optimizes the RX performance. Regarding rte_eth_dev_info and rte_eth_rxconf, I checked the structures and there doesn't seem to be a relevant generic variable that maps to this specific hardware parameter.

Are these the defaults in other OS's? Even better would be to integrate them into the existing DPDK rte_eth_thresh values that are passed in via rte_eth_rxconf and returned with rte_eth_dev_info.
