Subject: [dpdk-dev] DPDK ethdev/mbuf features and reviews
Date: Fri, 07 Jul 2017 11:20:55 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <7163702.SNZHi7COno@xps> (raw)
Hi,
The ethdev library is very special as it defines the services (ops)
to be implemented in every DPDK networking drivers.
It defines also some configuration bits to support.
The mbuf library defines also some offloads to support in drivers.
Some of these features are not enough supported and need more efforts.
You can check this table for a summary:
http://dpdk.org/doc/guides/nics/overview.html#id1
These features are being summarized by Ferruh who needs help and review:
http://dpdk.org/patch/26492
We must also take care of the new added features.
Adding a feature means it should be supported by every drivers.
For a PMD maintainer, the first step is to carefully review the new
proposed feature in mbuf or ethdev. The second step is to implement it.
Thanks for your help
