[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 12/12] Add memory support for IBM Power Architecture

Fri Sep 26 11:36:26 CEST 2014


IBM Power architecture has different memory architecture with x86. When
the physical memory address is in ascending order, the mmaped virtual
address is in descending order. This patch modified the memory segment
detection code to make it work for Power.
