Just as _vdpa_register_device taking @nvqs as the number of queues
I wonder if it's better to embed nvqs in the config structure.
Hmmm, the config structure is mostly for containing the configurables specified in the 'vdpa dev add' command, while each field is conditionally set and guarded by a corresponding mask bit. If @nvqs needs to be folded into a structure, I feel it might be better to use another struct for holding the informational fields (i.e. those are read-only and always exist). But doing this would make @nvqs a weird solo member in that struct with no extra benefit, and all the other informational fields shown in the 'vdpa dev show' command would be gotten from the device through config_ops directly. Maybe do this until another read-only field comes around?


to feed userspace inquery via vdpa_dev_fill(), we can follow the
same to stash config attributes in struct vdpa_device at the time
of vdpa registration.

I think it would be nice if we can convert eni to use netlink then we
don't need any workaround like this.
Yes, Alibaba ENI is the only consumer of the old vdpa_register_device() API without being ported to the netlink API. Not sure what is needed but it seems another work to make netlink API committed to support a legacy compatible model?
