On completion PMD fetches the\ndescriptor index, then fetches the elts array index from\nreserved field and frees the mbufs.\n\nThe new ConnectX-6DX NIC might use this reserved descriptor\nfield and existing implementation might not work in intended way.\nTo resolve this issue the dedicated buffer is introduced to\nstore indices to instead of descriptor field.\n\nSigned-off-by: Viacheslav Ovsiienko <viacheslavo@mellanox.com>\n\nViacheslav Ovsiienko (4):\n  net/mlx5: move Tx complete request routine\n  net/mlx5: update Tx error handling routine\n  net/mlx5: add free on completion queue\n  net/mlx5: engage free on completion queue\n\n drivers/net/mlx5/mlx5_rxtx.c | 153 ++++++++++++++++++++-----------------------\n drivers/net/mlx5/mlx5_rxtx.h |  13 ++--\n drivers/net/mlx5/mlx5_txq.c  |  19 +++++-\n 3 files changed, 94 insertions(+), 91 deletions(-)"
