[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 0/6] net/mlx5: reduce Tx datapath compile time

The mlx5_rxtx.c file contains a lot of Tx burst functions, each of those is performance-optimized for the specific set of requested offloads.
These ones are generated on the basis of the template function and it takes significant time to compile, just due to a large number of giant functions generated in the same file and this compilation is not being done in parallel with using multithreading.

Therefore, in this series we split the mlx5_rxtx.c file into several separate files to allow different functions to be compiled simultaneously.

Michael Baum (6):
  net/mlx5: separate Rx function declarations to another file
  net/mlx5: separate Rx function implementations to new file
  net/mlx5: separate Tx function declarations to another file
  net/mlx5: separate Tx burst template to header file
  net/mlx5: separate Tx function implementations to new file
  net/mlx5: separate Tx burst functions to different files
