Subject: [dpdk-dev] Enable virtio VIRTIO_RING_F_INDIRECT_DESC feature ?
Date: Fri, 2 Sep 2016 13:41:57 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <ED8610E7-EC05-4E88-9209-19F9EC438ED5@cisco.com> (raw)

Hello all,

I think http://dpdk.org/dev/patchwork/patch/5389/ disabled support of indirect buffers by accident.
Am I missing something ? Is there a reason why this was disabled ?

I tested it today and it seems to work fine.
If you have no objection, could we re-enable it ? 
It is a very useful feature as it enables using more descriptors than limited by the queue size.

Thanks,

- Pierre
