[Jingjing Wu]

For virtual device, the rte_intr_handle struct is
initialized by the virtual device driver, including
the event fd assignment. If the event fd need to be

This patch adds efd_counter_size in rte_intr_handle
struct to tell the rx interrupt process know the size
should read.

How interrupts are working with other buses?

Is it something we should manage in bus drivers code?

Any plan to move interrupts from EAL to bus?

It is an open question :)

OK. How about the patch on current interrupt? I think it is OK, right :)

I am not convinced at all by the whole interrupt management codebase.
But waiting longer for applying a patch will not improve the situation :)

Applied, thanks
