[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 01/12] eal: make lcore config private

David Marchand david.marchand at redhat.com
Wed Oct 23 20:54:13 CEST 2019


From: Stephen Hemminger <stephen at networkplumber.org>

The internal structure of lcore_config does not need to be part of
visible API/ABI. Make it private to EAL.

Rearrange the structure so it takes less memory (and cache footprint).

Based on Stephen v8: http://patchwork.dpdk.org/patch/60443/

Changes since Stephen v8:
- do not change core_id, socket_id and core_index types,
