YES, but that is configured by the hypervisor.

For the user on any platform, when he got a vm, the queue num is fixed.
As I know, on most case, the num is less.
If we want the af-xdp/xdp-tx has the the independent queues
I think the dynamic queue is good way.

But now, if the devices has 256, we will enable the 256 queues by default.
that is too much.

So, the dynamic queue is not to create a new queue out of the resource.

The device may tell the driver, the max queue resource is 256,
but let we start from 8. If the driver need more, then we can
enable more.

But for me, the xdp tx can share the sq queue, so let we start
the af-xdp from sharing sq queue.

NO. If the virtio core use_dma_api is false, the dma premapped
can not be ture.

YES. Is not too hard, but I was doing too much.

* virtio-net + device stats
* virtio-net + af-xdp, this patch set has about 27 commits

And I was pushing this too long, I just want to finish the work.
Then I can work on the next (premapped big mode, af-xdp multi-buf....).

So, let we step by step.

If you mean this function virtnet_sq_map_sg, I think you are right.

I will put it to the virtio core.
