[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 0/7] net/mlx5: improve single core performance

[Nelio Laranjeiro <nelio.laranjeiro@6wind.com>]

This series applies on top of
"[PATCH] eal: define generic vector types" [1][2]

Using built-in vector types forces compilers to consider SIMD instructions in
specific places in order to improve performance on both IBM POWER8 and Intel
architectures.

For example, testpmd single-thread I/O forwarding packets per second
performance is improved by 6% on Intel platforms.
