Re: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH v3 3/5] hash: add fallback to software CRC32 implementation

[Yerden Zhumabekov <e_zhumabekov@sts.kz>]

Sorry, maybe I made a mistake here.

Accoring to lib/librte_eal/common/eal_common_cpuflags.c code, it seemed
to me that constructor attribute is not supported by intel compiler. So
in that case here I decided to leave the code for autodetection. Am I
correct?
