net/mlx5: Let user configure io_eq_size param
Currently, each I/O EQ is taking 128KB of memory. This size is not needed in all use cases, and is critical with large scale. Hence, allow user to configure the size of I/O EQs. For example, to reduce I/O EQ size to 64, execute: $ devlink resource set pci/0000:00:0b.0 path /io_eq_size/ size 64 $ devlink dev reload pci/0000:00:0b.0 Signed-off-by: Shay Drory <shayd@nvidia.com> Reviewed-by: Moshe Shemesh <moshe@nvidia.com> Reviewed-by: Parav Pandit <parav@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: Saeed Mahameed <saeedm@nvidia.com>
