2015-11-25 17:55, Montorsi, Francesco:
> Since I was using the rte_eth_rx_queue_count() function in one place, and VMXNET3 does not support it, I'm getting a SEGFAULT.
> So next question is:  is user's task to check for validity of pointers inside dev_ops before calling driver functions? Because rte_eth_rx_queue_count() and companion funcitons have no safety checks apparently (!!!)

Bruce already sent a fix for this issue.
It should be applied on HEAD in few minutes.
