[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 1/4] vhost: move allocation of mbuf outside of packet enqueue

Wed Apr 7 12:17:18 CEST 2021


In preparation for subsequent patches, move mbuf allocation out and
rename virtio_dev_pktmbuf_alloc to virtio_dev_pktmbuf_prep. This
function now receives an already allocated mbuf pointer.
