[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2] net/virtio: add platform memory ordering feature support

Wed Dec 26 17:37:12 CET 2018
VIRTIO_F_ORDER_PLATFORM is required to use proper memory barriers
in case of HW vhost implementations like vDPA.
DMA barriers (rte_cio_*) are sufficent for that purpose.
Previously known as VIRTIO_F_IO_BARRIER.
Signed-off-by: Ilya Maximets <i.maximets at samsung.com>

Version 2:
* rebased on current master (packed rings).
RFC --> Version 1:
* Dropped vendor-specific hack to determine if we need real barriers.
* Added VIRTIO_F_ORDER_PLATFORM feature definition and checking.
Note: Patch to change the name of the feature from VIRTIO_F_IO_BARRIER
to VIRTIO_F_ORDER_PLATFORM is not merged yet:
