Great - lets discuss implementation ;)

Hmm, I don't like that we'd have to break ABI every time we want to add an item to attr_get().. so adding a parameter "attr_id" would allow adding events in future. This solution feels a bit like a re-implementation of the xstats API..

Thoughts? -H


enum {
  PORT_COUNT,
  PORT_DEQUEUE_DEPTH,
  PORT_ENQUEUE_DEPTH,
}

/* retrieve value of port 
int rte_event_port_attr_get(uint8_t dev_id, uint8_t port_id, uint32_t attr_id, uint32_t *attr_value /* out */);
