Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 0/4] net/mlx: enhance rdma-core glue configuration
Date: Fri, 2 Feb 2018 17:46:10 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180202164050.13017-1-adrien.mazarguil@6wind.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180202144736.8239-1-adrien.mazarguil@6wind.com>
The decision to deliver mlx4/mlx5 rdma-core glue plug-ins separately instead
of generating them at run time due to security concerns [1] led to a few
issues:
- They must be present on the file system before running DPDK.
- Their location must be known to the dynamic linker.
- Their names overlap and ABI compatibility is not guaranteed, which may
lead to crashes.
This series addresses the above by adding version information to plug-ins
and taking CONFIG_RTE_EAL_PMD_PATH into account to locate them on the file
system.
[1] http://dpdk.org/ml/archives/dev/2018-January/089617.html
v2 changes:
- Fixed extra "\n" in glue file name generation (although it didn't break
functionality).
Adrien Mazarguil (4):
net/mlx: add debug checks to glue structure
net/mlx: fix missing includes for rdma-core glue
net/mlx: version rdma-core glue libraries
net/mlx: make rdma-core glue path configurable
