  Currently, upper-layer application could get queue state only
through pointers such as dev->data->tx_queue_state[queue_id],
this is not the recommended way to access it. So this patch
add get queue state when call rte_eth_rx_queue_info_get and
rte_eth_tx_queue_info_get API.

Note: The hairpin queue is not supported with above
rte_eth_*x_queue_info_get, so the queue state could be
RTE_ETH_QUEUE_STATE_STARTED or RTE_ETH_QUEUE_STATE_STOPPED.
Note: After add queue_state field, the 'struct rte_eth_rxq_info' size
remains 128B, and the 'struct rte_eth_txq_info' size remains 64B, so
it could be ABI compatible.

These could be an enum?

There is a one byte hole here waiting to be used.
Why not use that?

I wonder why RTE_ETH_QUEUE_STATE_HAIRPIN Is not supported?
Obviously what we do - copy internal queue state to the user provided buffer.

I think comment has to state that possible values are one of
RTE_ETH_QUEUE_STATE_*.
About previous discussion about new field in this struct vs new API function,
I still think new function will be a bit cleaner, but could live with both.

> +	uint8_t queue_state;

If we'll go with new 1B field, then as Stephen pointed,
it is probably worth to fill the hole between scattered_rx
and nb_desc with this new filed.

These values are already used to assign to 
'rte_eth_dev_data->[rt]x_queue_state', which are 'uint8_t', end we can't change 
them to 'enum' because of ABI concerns, so I think we can keep them as it is.

Hi Lijun,

Let's try to complete this for the release.

+1, with current implementation we can't say it is only for start & stop.

Since 'STATE_HAIRPIN' is all internal, it may be possible to separate it into 
its own variable and expose only start and stop, but I don't think it worth the 
effort, why not just expose all possible states.

Other comments I case see:

1- Make QUEUE_STATE enum
   For consistency with existing usage I think we can keep it as it is

2- Make a specific API to get the queue state
   No strong opinion, I think we can go with this one

3- Use enum type in "struct rte_eth_rxq_info"
   Which make sense but we don't have space in current struct, also 
'rte_eth_dev_data' has variable to hold same, and for consistency if we change 
it to enum in it, that is even wider change. I think it doesn't worth the effort 
and we can continue with 'uint8_t'

Please add if any is missing, and if there is any strong opinion on above.


If there is no objection, only required changes are above two issues commented 
inline,
- Remove comment/note that this is only for start/stop states
- Replace the field location to benefit from gap in struct

With this patch - not any more, as we move RTE_ETH_QUEUE_STATE_* Defines
into rte_ethdev.h.
