Subject: [PATCH] net/ixgbe: fix min Rx/Tx descriptors
Date: Fri, 21 Feb 2025 08:23:18 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250221082318.331815-1-mingjinx.ye@intel.com> (raw)

The minimum free packet threshold (tx_free_thresh) and the minimum RS bit
threshold (tx_rs_thresh) both have a default value of 32. Therefore, the
default minimum number of ring descriptors value is 64.

Fixes: dee5f1fd5fc7 ("ixgbe: get queue info and descriptor limits")
Cc: stable@dpdk.org
