Subject: [PATCH] doc: announce changes to event vector structure
Date: Tue, 28 Jun 2022 16:58:52 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220628112852.1397-1-pbhagavatula@marvell.com> (raw)

From: Pavan Nikhilesh <pbhagavatula@marvell.com>

The structure ``rte_event_vector`` will be modified to include
``elem_offset:12`` bits taken from ``rsvd:15``.
The ``elem_offset`` defines the offset into the vector array from
which valid elements are present.

+* eventdev: The structure ``rte_event_vector`` will be modified to include
+  ``elem_offset:12`` bits taken from ``rsvd:15``. The ``elem_offset`` defines
+  the offset into the vector array from which valid elements are present.
+  The difference between ``rte_event_vector::nb_elem`` and
+  ``rte_event_vector::elem_offset`` gives the number of valid elements left to
+  process from the ``rte_event_vector::elem_offset``.
