ALLOC_ETHERDEV_MQS(9)                 Network device support                ALLOC_ETHERDEV_MQS(9)



NAME
       alloc_etherdev_mqs - Allocates and sets up an Ethernet device

SYNOPSIS
       struct net_device * alloc_etherdev_mqs(int sizeof_priv, unsigned int txqs,
                                              unsigned int rxqs);

ARGUMENTS
       sizeof_priv
           Size of additional driver-private structure to be allocated for this Ethernet device

       txqs
           The number of TX queues this device has.

       rxqs
           The number of RX queues this device has.

DESCRIPTION
       Fill in the fields of the device structure with Ethernet-generic values. Basically does
       everything except registering the device.

       Constructs a new net device, complete with a private data area of size (sizeof_priv). A
       32-byte (not bit) alignment is enforced for this private data area.
