'uint64_t' is used to hold pointers in multiple locations in the copy-mode code (used for kernels before 5.4). For a 32-bit build this assumption is wrong and results in build errors. This commit replaces such instances of 'uint64_t' with 'uintptr_t'. While the copy-mode code will now compile for 32-bit, the PMD is not expected to work and will fail at initialisation due to some limitations in the kernel that were subsequently removed in v5.4. Add a note to the docs to flag this limitation.

I guess libbpf also needs to be adjusted for the 32bit support, what about making PMD changes after libbpf changed? > #if defined(XDP_UMEM_UNALIGNED_CHUNK_FLAG) > addr = xsk_umem__extract_addr(addr); > @@ -1005,7 +1005,7 @@ xsk_umem_info *xdp_umem_configure(struct pmd_internals *internals, > char ring_name[RTE_RING_NAMESIZE]; > char mz_name[RTE_MEMZONE_NAMESIZE]; > int ret; > - uint64_t i; > + uintptr_t i; > Not sure on this one, 'i' seems not to hold a pointer but index, and result of calculation cast to "void *", I assume intention is to prevent calculation result to be 64 bit to cover the case "void *" is 4 bytes, for that what do you think making variable uint32_t?

Correct. However we can assume the higher 32bits are zero in this case. The 'addr' we are consuming via this API will be one which we previously enqueued to the buf_ring and we always cast to (void *) on enqueue. > > I guess libbpf also needs to be adjusted for the 32bit support, what about > making PMD changes after libbpf changed?

Do you suggest something like: #ifdef RTE_ARCH_64 uint64_t i; #else uint32_t i; #endif I can submit a v2 with just the doc update and hold off on the other changes until the necessary changes to libbpf are in place. Let me know what you think. Thanks, Ciara
