            Bug ID: 1775
           Summary: rte_hash performs poorly with small key sizes
           Product: DPDK
           Version: 25.07
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: Normal
         Component: other
          Assignee: dev at dpdk.org
          Reporter: mattias.ronnblom at ericsson.com
  Target Milestone: ---

<rte_hash.h> uses memcmp() to compare key sizes < 16 bytes.

memcmp() is often not a compiler intrinsic (e.g., not on GCC), and thus each
comparison will result in an expensive libc call (both function call overhead
and the byte-scanning required by memcmp).

memcmp() should preferably never be used for a pure boolean comparison.
