Subject: Re: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2] ixgbe: fix icc issue with mbuf initializer
Date: Wed, 05 Nov 2014 22:45:52 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4733896.5T345UQtsj@xps13> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1415034068-22656-1-git-send-email-bruce.richardson@intel.com>

> When using Intel C++ compiler(icc) 14.0.1.106 or the older icc 13.x
> version, the mbuf initializer variable was not getting configured
> correctly, as the mb_def variable was not set correctly. This is due
> to an issue with icc (DPD200249565 which already been fixed in
> icc 14.0.2 and newer compiler release) where it incorrectly calculates
> the field offsets with initializers when zero-sized fields
> are used in a structure.
> To work around this, the code in ixgbe_rxq_vec_setup does not setup the
> fields using an initializer, but instead assigns the values individually
> in code
> NOTE: There is no performance impact to this change as the queue
> setup functions are not data-plane APIs, but are only used at app
> initialization.
