Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH v4 00/14] Patches for DPDK to support Power architecture
Date: Tue, 25 Nov 2014 09:43:32 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1416926626-7942-1-git-send-email-chaozhu@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)

The set of patches add IBM Power architecture to the DPDK. It adds the
required support to the EAL library. This set of patches doesn't support
full DPDK function on Power processors. So a separate common configuration
file is used for Power to turn off some un-migrated functions. To  compile
on PPC64 architecture, GCC version >= 4.8 must be used. This v4 patch fixed
the checkpatch issues in v3. 
The only unsolved checkpatch issue is :
ERROR: space prohibited before open square bracket '['
This issue refers to the asm code input/output naming. But I think the
error is invalid.

Chao Zhu (14):
  Add compiling definations for IBM Power architecture
  Add atomic operations for IBM Power architecture
  Add byte order operations for IBM Power architecture
  Add CPU cycle operations for IBM Power architecture
  Add prefetch operation for IBM Power architecture
  Add spinlock operation for IBM Power architecture
  Add vector memcpy for IBM Power architecture
  Add CPU flag checking for IBM Power architecture
  Remove iopl operation for IBM Power architecture
  Add cache size define for IBM Power Architecture
  Add huge page size define for IBM Power architecture
  Add eal memory support for IBM Power Architecture
  test_memzone:fix finding the second smallest segment
  Fix the compiling of test-pmd on IBM Power Architecture
