Re: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH 1/3 v3] librte_hash: Fix unsupported instruction `crc32' in i686 platform

["Liu, Yong" <yong.liu@intel.com>]

Michael & Thomas,

Should we use software crc function replace of hardware crc function in 'crc32c_sse42_u64' when arch is i686?
Thus application still can use CRC32_SSE42_x64 algorithm for crc calculation when build with i686 configuration.
This may helpful for simplify application code.
