Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH v6 0/7] switching device representation
Date: Wed, 28 Mar 2018 14:54:25 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180328135433.20203-1-declan.doherty@intel.com> (raw)

This patchset follows on from the port rerpesentor patchsets and the
community discussion that resulted. It outlines the model for
representing and controlling switching capable devices in a new
programmer's guide entry based upon the excellent summary by 
Adrien Mazarguil in
 (http://dpdk.org/ml/archives/dev/2018-March/092513.html).

The next patches introduce changes to librte_ether to:
1, support the definition of a switch domain and make it public to
application through the rte_eth_dev_info structure.
2, Add generic ethdev create/destroy APIs to facilitate and generalise the
creation of ethdev's on different bus types.
3, Add ethdev attribute to dev_flags to specify that a port is a
representor port and make public through the rte_eth_dev_info
structure.
4, Add devargs parsing for generic eth_devargs to facilate parsing in
NET PMDs. This will be refactored to take account of the changes in 
(http://dpdk.org/ml/archives/dev/2018-March/092513.html)

This patchset also includes the enablement of port representor for ixgbe 
and i40e PF devices.
