Hi,

Should we split this commit into two ones? For rte and for the driver?
Should we add tracing to the rte_eth_get_queue_rate_limit() getter like we have
in the rte_eth_set_queue_rate_limit() ?

With best regards,
Slava

> Subject: [PATCH v3 08/9] ethdev: add getter for per-queue Tx rate limit
> 
> The existing rte_eth_set_queue_rate_limit() API allows setting a per-queue Tx
> rate but provides no way to read it back. Applications such as grout are 
> forced
> to maintain a shadow copy of the rate to be able to report it.
> 
> Add rte_eth_get_queue_rate_limit() as the symmetric getter, following the
> established DPDK pattern (e.g. rte_eth_dev_set_mtu/get_mtu,
> rte_eth_dev_set_vlan_offload/get_vlan_offload).
> 
> This adds:
> - eth_get_queue_rate_limit_t driver callback in ethdev_driver.h
> - rte_eth_get_queue_rate_limit() public experimental API (26.07)
> - mlx5 PMD implementation reading from the existing per-queue
>   rate_mbps tracking field
