Can we have this patchset in 18.05-rc1?
Or is it candidate to rc2?

16/04/2018 15:33, Andrew Rybchenko:
> The patch series adds bucket mempool driver which allows to allocate
> (both physically and virtually) contiguous blocks of objects and adds
> mempool API to do it. It is still capable to provide separate objects,
> but it is definitely more heavy-weight than ring/stack drivers.
> The driver will be used by the future Solarflare driver enhancements
> which allow to utilize physical contiguous blocks in the NIC firmware.
> 
> The target usecase is dequeue in blocks and enqueue separate objects
> back (which are collected in buckets to be dequeued). So, the memory
> pool with bucket driver is created by an application and provided to
> networking PMD receive queue. The choice of bucket driver is done using
> rte_eth_dev_pool_ops_supported(). A PMD that relies upon contiguous
> block allocation should report the bucket driver as the only supported
> and preferred one.
