Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH] doc: fix description of some mlx5 features
Date: Wed, 19 May 2021 16:20:56 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210519142056.2140211-1-thomas@monjalon.net> (raw)
From: Asaf Penso <asafp@nvidia.com>
The support of the new RTE_FLOW_ITEM_TYPE_INTEGRITY
was added in the release notes 21.02 by mistake.
The support of the Sub-Function representors was missing
in the release notes and the mlx5 guide.
Fixes: 79f8952783d0 ("net/mlx5: support integrity flow item")
Fixes: cb95feefdd03 ("net/mlx5: support sub-function representor")

+Sub-Function is a portion of the PCI device, a SF netdev has its own
dedicated queues(txq, rxq). A SF netdev supports E-Switch representation
offload similar to existing PF and VF representors. A SF shares PCI
level resources with other SFs and/or with its parent PCI function.
