Devendra Singh Rawat, Alok Prasad - can you please give your feedback on the qede driver updates?

> -----Original Message-----
> In current DPDK the RTE_MAX_MEMZONE definition is unconditionally hard
> coded as 2560.  For applications requiring different values of this parameter
> – it is more convenient to set the max value via an rte API - rather than
> changing the dpdk source code per application.  In many organizations, the
> possibility to compile a private DPDK library for a particular application does
> not exist at all.  With this option there is no need to recompile DPDK and it
> allows using an in-box packaged DPDK.
> An example usage for updating the RTE_MAX_MEMZONE would be of an
> application that uses the DPDK mempool library which is based on DPDK
> memzone library.  The application may need to create a number of steering
> tables, each of which will require its own mempool allocation.
> This commit is not about how to optimize the application usage of mempool
> nor about how to improve the mempool implementation based on
> memzone.  It is about how to make the max memzone definition - run-time
> customized.
> This commit adds an API which must be called before rte_eal_init():
> rte_memzone_max_set(int max).  If not called, the default memzone
> (RTE_MAX_MEMZONE) is used.  There is also an API to query the effective
> max memzone: rte_memzone_max_get().
