Bring consistency to identify a virtuque by number
paravmellanox opened this issue · comments
Problem statement:
-
Currently, a virtqueue is identified between the driver and device
interchangeably using either number of index terminology. -
Between PCI and MMIO transport the queue size (depth) is
defined as queue_size and QueueNum respectively.
To avoid confusion and to have consistency, unify them to use as Number.
Solution:
Use virtqueue index description and rename MMIO register as QueueSize.
