Not exactly. DCB configuration in testpmd is also the same operation. I
understand that the DCB configuration needs to be verified in driver
dev_configure before doing the reconfigure during port_start.

I think there are two things:
1/ User may not know the previous configuration.
2/ Generally, if a command fails to be configured, the current
configuration does not聽 take effect and remains in the previous state.
This is achieved by adding a check and recovery here.

It may not be feasible. After all, the definition of 'speed_capa' and
'link_speeds' is not very relevant in the framework.
In addition, the scheme for reporting 'speed_capa' varies from the PMD
driver. Many drivers report all speed capabilities, but the actual state
may not support all of them.
However, if the driver supports the 'link_speeds' configuration, the
driver should verify the link_speeds configuration because the ethdev
layer does not verify the 'link_speeds' configuration.

Above is my personal opinion, look forward to reply.
