Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH v3 1/2] examples/l3fwd: eliminate unnecessary calculations
Date: Thu, 10 Jun 2021 06:57:39 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210610065740.231799-2-ruifeng.wang@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210610065740.231799-1-ruifeng.wang@arm.com>

Both L2 and L3 headers will be used in forward processing. And these
two headers are in the same cache line. It has the same effect for
prefetching with L2 header address and prefetching with L3 header
address.

Changed to use L2 header address for prefetching. The change showed
no measurable performance improvement, but it definitely removed
unnecessary instructions for address calculation.
