  To make the debugging easier, the error logs were added in the Tx path.

Is 'ena_trc_err()' for datapath?

DPDK has two types of logs,
- for control path, dynamic logging, whose logging level can be dynamically changed
- for data path, a compile time controlled logging, this is to prevent
performance loss in data path. For ena these flags are
CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_ENA_DEBUG_RX=n
CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_ENA_DEBUG_TX=n
CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_ENA_DEBUG_TX_FREE=n


I can see ena also has 'RTE_LIBRTE_ENA_COM_DEBUG' compile to flag, which
controls above 'ena_trc_err' variants. If this is control path, what do you
think removing the compile time flag and convert these 'COM' logs to dynamic
logging?

ena_trc_err() is being used in both control and datapath.

I agree with you that it would be great if we would use dynamic
logging for control path - I must talk with engineers responsible for
ena_com to raise that issue and, hopefully, it'll be possible to
adjust that in the future.

I suggest to postpone that kind of change for the next release, as
making ena_com changes is a bit time consuming.
