[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v5 0/6] enable Rx flexible descriptor

[Leyi Rong]

This patchset enable Rx flexible descriptor for ice PMD
in both normal path and vector path.
Depends on shared code update patchset.

---
v5:
- Fix some typo, and enhance the array index access handling.
- Move update for release note to `New Features` section.

v4:
- Handle the ‘proto_xtr’ with error processing, and remove the
  Redundant default type variable.
- Add flex descriptor and protocol extraction release note.
- Clean up the legacy descriptor.

v3:
- Parse the ‘proto_xtr’ devargs before CVL HW initialization and
  save it for later accessing.
- Merge shuffle ops on vlan and rss flag on vector path.

v2:
- Remove the CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_ICE_PROTO_XTR definition, and use the
  RTE_LIBRTE_ICE_16BYTE_RX_DESC to control the protocol extraction
  when handling Rx packets.

Haiyue Wang (4):
  net/ice: add Rx flex descriptor definition
  net/ice: handle the Rx flex descriptor
  net/ice: add protocol extraction support for per Rx queue
  net/ice: remove Rx legacy descriptor definition

Leyi Rong (1):
  net/ice: switch to Rx flexible descriptor in AVX path

Wenzhuo Lu (1):
  net/ice: switch to flexible descriptor in SSE path
