  Commit 29a1c9107bb disabled interrupts on FreeBSD for the vmxnet3 driver
as they are not supported. Rx queue interrupts were missed by this
change, don't attempt to enable them on FreeBSD.

Without this change applications enabling interrupts encounter an
immediate abort on FreeBSD.

Thanks for the patch, you will probably want this fix backported in
LTS versions.
If so, please add a Fixes: tag and Cc: stable@dpdk.org.
I guess here, it is:
Fixes: 40d5676ff1ea ("net/vmxnet3: fix initialization on FreeBSD")

Cc: Bruce

Reading again the commitlog, I wonder if we should error out in
vmxnet3_configure_msix() if rx (and/or lsc) interrupts are requested
for FreeBSD.
Did you consider this approach?

I haven't dug much futher into this. I also changed the application side (vpp) to not request interrupts. I think there are probably some other FreeBSD specific cases to explore in vmxnet3, but I don't have a great environment for testing yet.
