Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 0/5] New library: rte_distributor
Date: Thu, 29 May 2014 11:12:13 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1401358338-23455-1-git-send-email-bruce.richardson@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1400580057-30155-1-git-send-email-bruce.richardson@intel.com>

This adds a new library to the Intel DPDK whereby a set of packets can be distributed one-at-a-time to a set of worker cores, with dynamic load balancing being done between those workers. Flows are identified by a tag within the mbuf (currently the RSS hash field, 32-bit value), which is used to ensure that no two packets of the same flow are processed in parallel, thereby preserving ordering.

Major changes in V2 set:
* Updates to take account of Neil's comments on original patch set
* Updates to fix issues highlighted by checkpatch.pl
* Additional handling in library for special case when process() is called with zero mbufs

Bruce Richardson (5):
  eal: add tailq for new distributor component
  distributor: new packet distributor library
  distributor: add distributor library to build
  distributor: add unit tests for distributor lib
  docs: add distributor lib to API docs
