[dpdk-stable] [PATCH v7 1/5] hash: separate multi-writer from rw-concurrency

[dpdk-stable] [PATCH v7 1/5] hash: separate multi-writer from rw-concurrency

[Honnappa Nagarahalli]

RW concurrency is required with single writer and multiple reader
usecase as well. Hence, multi-writer should not be enabled by default when
RW concurrency is enabled.

Fixes: f2e3001b53ec ("hash: support read/write concurrency")

[dpdk-stable] [PATCH v7 3/5] hash: fix key store element alignment

[Honnappa Nagarahalli]

Fix the key store array element alignment such that every array
element is aligned on KEY_ALIGNMENT boundary. This is required to
make 'pdata' in 'struct rte_hash_key' align on its natural boundary
for atomic load/store.

Fixes: 473d1bebce43 ("hash: allow to store data in hash table")

There is something strange with your send.
This patch is sent two times:
	- one to dev + stable
	- one to stable only
It should be sent only to dev + stable at the same time.

Thanks for pointing out. I think I figured out the problem, I will fix it.

RW concurrency is required with single writer and multiple reader
usecase as well. Hence, multi-writer should not be enabled by default when
RW concurrency is enabled.
