[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v1 14/48] net/mlx4: revert flow API RSS support

Adrien Mazarguil adrien.mazarguil at 6wind.com
Tue Aug 1 18:54:01 CEST 2017


This reverts commit d7769c7c08cc08a9d1bc4e40b95524d9697707d9.

Existing RSS features rely on experimental Verbs provided by Mellanox OFED.

In order to replace this dependency with standard distribution packages,
RSS support must be temporarily removed to be re-implemented using a
different API.

Removing support for the RSS flow rule action is the first step toward this
goal.
