Yes, actually, the correct value should be "vectors>=N+1", with N 
standing for the number of queue pairs. It's due to the hard coded 
mapping logic:
0 -> config irq
1 -> rxq0
2 -> rxq1
...

Agreed.

It's freed at dev_close(). Do you mean freeing and reallocating here? As 
nr_rx_queues is not a changeable value, I don't see the necessity here. 
I miss something?

Thanks,
