Subject: [dpdk-dev] [RFC 00/16] enhance checksum offload API
Date: Thu, 22 Jan 2015 00:36:19 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1421883395-27235-1-git-send-email-olivier.matz@6wind.com> (raw)

The goal of this series is to clarify and simplify the mbuf offload API.
Several issues are solved:

- simplify the definitions of PKT_TX_IP_CKSUM and PKT_TX_IPV4, each
  flag has now only one meaning. No impact on the code.

- add a feature flag for OUTER_IP_CHECKSUM (from Jijiang's patches)

- remove the PKT_TX_UDP_TUNNEL_PKT flag: it is useless from an API point
  of view. It was added because i40e need this info for some reason. We
  have 3 solutions:

  - remove the flag and adapt the driver to the API (the choice I made
    for this series).

  - remove the flag and stop advertising OUTER_IP_CHECKSUM in i40e

  - keep this flag, penalizing performance of drivers that do not
    require the flag. It would also mean that drivers won't support
    outer IP checksum for all tunnel types, but only for the tunnel
    types having a flag.

- a side effect of this API clarification is that there is only one
  way for doing one operation. If the hardware has several ways to
  do the same operation, a choice has to be made in the driver.

The patch adds new tunnel types to testpmd csum forward engine.
Note: the i40e patches should be carefully checked by i40e experts.
