[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 0/3] net/mlx5: add Multi-Packet Rx support

[Yongseok Koh <yskoh@mellanox.com>]

Multi-Packet Rx Queue (MPRQ a.k.a Striding RQ) can further save PCIe
bandwidth by posting a single large buffer for multiple packets. Instead of
posting a buffer per a packet, one large buffer is posted in order to
receive multiple packets on the buffer. A MPRQ buffer consists of multiple
fixed-size strides and each stride receives one packet.

Rx packet is mem-copied to a user-provided mbuf if the size of Rx packet is
comparatively small, or PMD attaches the Rx packet to the mbuf by external
buffer attachment - rte_pktmbuf_attach_extbuf(). A mempool for external
buffers will be allocated and managed by PMD.

This patchset should be applied after:
  net/mlx5: add new Memory Region support

Yongseok Koh (3):
  net/mlx5: separate filling Rx flags
  net/mlx5: add a function to rdma-core glue
  net/mlx5: add Multi-Packet Rx support
