> 
> Hi all,
> 
> This is an invitation to discuss adding PCIe steering tags support to DPDK.
> We have had brief conversations over the idea at the DPDK summit.
> Steering tags allows stashing of descriptors and packet data closer to the
> CPUs, possibly allowing for lower latency and higher throughput.
> This feature requires contributions from CPU vendors and NIC vendors.
> The goal of the meeting is to present the next version of the API and seek
> support for implementation from other participants in the community.
> 
> I will be sending out the RFC some time this week, so there will be a plenty of
> time before the meeting to go over it.
> 
> Agenda:
> - Brief introduction to the feature
> - Introduce the APIs from RFC v2 (this will be submitted to the community
> before the call)
> - Dependencies on kernel support - API for reading steering tags
> - Addressing ABI in advance as patches will not be ready by 24.11
> 
> Please join the call if you are interested in the topic.
