> Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 0/4] DPDK memcpy optimization
> 
> This patch set optimizes memcpy for DPDK for both SSE and AVX platforms.
> It also extends memcpy test coverage with unaligned cases and more test points.
> 
> Optimization techniques are summarized below:
> 
> 1. Utilize full cache bandwidth
> 
> 2. Enforce aligned stores
> 
> 3. Apply load address alignment based on architecture features
> 
> 4. Make load/store address available as early as possible
> 
> 5. General optimization techniques like inlining, branch reducing, prefetch
> pattern access
> 
> --------------
> Changes in v2:
> 
> 1. Reduced constant test cases in app/test/test_memcpy_perf.c for fast build
> 
> 2. Modified macro definition for better code readability & safety
