For performance reasons, this patch uses 2 VIC RQs per RQ presented to DPDK. The VIC requires that each descriptor be marked as either a start of packet (SOP) descriptor or a non-SOP descriptor. A one RQ solution requires skipping descriptors when receiving small packets and results in bad performance when receiving many small packets. The 2 RQ solution makes use of the VIC feature that allows a receive on primary queue to 'spill over' into another queue if the receive is too large to fit in the buffer assigned to the descriptor on the primary queue. This means that there is no skipping of descriptors when receiving small packets and results in much better performance.
