Thank you for your reply.
We use a robot to test our dpu to get the return value of probe.
We often get ENOENT form ' setup_vq ' function because of device error.
Most of time, my device can't handle queue_enable well.
This time,we get 'ENOENT' because the device set max_data_queues bigger than num_queues.
I think EINVAL is used when the value of some parameter is wrong.
Btw,it not a big deal,I can modify the robot to workaround.
