NVIDIA roadmap for 22.03

Please find below NVIDIA roadmap for 22.03 release:



rte_flow new APIs:

================

[1] Support for template API (item and action) to optimize the insertion rate.

The combination of item and action templates along with shared flow rule attributes allows the PMD/HW to prepare all the resources needed for efficient flow rules creation in the datapath.

[2] Support for asynchronous queue-based flow rules management mechanism for applications.

A flow rule creation/destruction is enqueued on the specified flow queue and offloaded asynchronously to the hardware.



mlx5 PMD updates:

==================

[3] Support the rte_flow changes listed above.



rte_mempool updates:

===================

[4] Optimize the hugepage initialization to speed up the application start-up time.

testpmd updates:

================

[5] Support the changes in rte_flow listed above.

[4] Support sharing HW resources with non-DPDK process using shared ibverbs context and protection domain. Add devargs parameter to map external queues with DPDK indices.



rte_mempool updates:

===================

[5] Optimize the hugepage initialization to speed up the application start-up time.



testpmd updates:

================

[6] Support the changes in rte_flow listed above.
