I think it's a great idea to create an overall roadmap for the project for = 2.2 and beyond. To kick this off, below are the features that we're hoping = to submit for the 2.2 release. You should be seeing RFCs and v1 patch sets = for these over the next few weeks. Userspace Ethtool Sample App: Further enhancements to the userspace ethtoo= l implementation that was submitted in 2.1 including: Implement rte_ethtool= shim layer based on rte_ethdev API, Provide a sample application that demo= nstrates/allows testing of the rte_ethtool API, Implement rte_ethtool_get_r= ingparam/rte_ethtool_set_ringparam, Rework rte_eth_dev_get_reg_info() so we= can get/set HW registers in a convenient way. Vector PMD for fm10k: A vector PMD, similar to the one that currently exis= ts for the Intel 10Gbps NICs, will be implemented for fm10k. DCB for i40e &X550: DCB support will be extended to the i40e and X550 NICs= . IEEE1588 on X550 & fm10k: IEEE1588 support will be extended to the X550 an= d fm10k. IEEE1588 Sample App: A sample application for an IEEE1588 Client. Cryptodev Library: This implements a cryptodev API and PMDs for the Intel = Quick Assist Technology DH895xxC hardware accelerator and the AES-NI multi-= buffer software implementation. See http://dpdk.org/ml/archives/dev/2015-Au= gust/022930.html for further details. IPsec Sample App: A sample application will be provided to show how the cr= yptodev library can be used to implement IPsec. This will be based on the N= etBSD IPsec implementation. Interrupt Mode for i40e, fm10k & e1000: Interrupt mode support, which was = added in the 2.1 release, will be extended to the 140e, fm10k and e1000. Completion of PCI Hot Plug: PCI Hot Plug support, which was added in the 2= .0 and 2.1 releases, will be extended to the Xenvirt and Vmxnet3 PMDs. Increase Number of Next Hops for LPM (IPv4 and IPv6): The current DPDK imp= lementation for LPM for IPv4 and IPv6 limits the number of next hops to 256= , as the next hop ID is an 8-bit long field. The size of the field will be= increased to allow an increased number of next hops. Performance Thread Sample App: A sample application will be provided showi= ng how different threading models can be used in DPDK. It will be possible = to configure the application for, and contrast forwarding performance of, d= ifferent threading models including lightweight threads. See http://dpdk.or= g/ml/archives/dev/2015-September/023186.html for further details. DPDK Keep-Alive: The purpose is to detect packet processing core failures = (e.g. infinite loop) and ensure the failure of the core does not result in = a fault that is not detectable by a management entity. Vhost Offload Feature Support: This feature will implement virtio TSO offl= oad to help improve performance. Common Port Statistics: This feature will extend the exposed NIC statistic= s, improving the method of presentation to make it obvious what their purpo= se is. This functionality is based on the rte_eth_xstats_* extended stats A= PI implemented in DPDK 2.1. NFV Use-cases using Packet Framework (Edge Router): Enhancements will be m= ade to the IP_Pipeline application and the Packet Framework libraries so th= at they can be used to support an Edge Router NFV use case. Refactor EAL for Non-PCI Devices: This has been discussed extensively on t= he mailing list. See the RFCs for Refactor eal driver registration code (ht= tp://dpdk.org/ml/archives/dev/2015-September/023257.html) and Remove pci dr= iver from vdevs (http://dpdk.org/ml/archives/dev/2015-August/023016.html). Vhost Multi-Queue Support: The vhost-user library will be updated to provi= de multi-queue support in the host similar to the RSS model so that guest d= river may allocate multiple rx/tx queues which then may be used to load bal= ance between cores. See http://dpdk.org/ml/archives/dev/2015-August/022758.= html for more details. Virtio Vhost Optimization: Virtio and vhost performance will be optimized = to allow efficient high performance packet movement between guest and host. Config Granularity of RSS for i40e: All RSS hash and filter configurations= for IPv4/v6, TCP/UDP, GRE, etc will be implemented for i40e. This includes= support for QinQ and tunneled packets. I40e 32-bit GRE Keys: Both 24 and 32 bit keys for GRE will be supported fo= r i40e. X550 Enhancements: Support VF TSO, more Entries in RSS and per VF RSS, net= work overlay support with flow director for X550. =20 TSO support for fm10K, igb, ixgbe VF: Enable TCP Segmentation Offload for = fm10K, igb and ixgbe VF. Ixgbe, i40e and fm10k base code updates.
