    "content": "This patch set adds the read-write concurrency support in rte_hash.\nA new flag value is added to indicate if read-write concurrency is needed\nduring creation time. Test cases are implemented to do functional and\nperformance tests.\n\nThe new concurrency model is based on rte_rwlock. When Intel TSX is\navailable and the users indicate to use it, the TM version of the\nrte_rwlock will be called. Both multi-writer and read-write concurrency\nare protected by the rte_rwlock instead of the x86 specific RTM\ninstructions, so the x86 specific header rte_cuckoo_hash_x86.h is removed\nand the code is infused into the main .c file.\n\nA new rte_hash_count API is proposed to count how many keys are inserted into\nthe hash table.\n\nYipeng Wang (3):\n  hash: add read and write concurrency support\n  test: add test case for read write concurrency\n  hash: add new API function to query the key count\n\n lib/librte_hash/rte_cuckoo_hash.c     | 658 +++++++++++++++++++++-------------\n lib/librte_hash/rte_cuckoo_hash.h     |  16 +-\n lib/librte_hash/rte_cuckoo_hash_x86.h | 164 ---------\n lib/librte_hash/rte_hash.h            |  14 +\n lib/librte_hash/rte_hash_version.map  |   8 +\n test/test/Makefile                    |   1 +\n test/test/test_hash.c                 |  12 +\n test/test/test_hash_multiwriter.c     |   9 +\n test/test/test_hash_perf.c            |  36 +-\n test/test/test_hash_readwrite.c       | 649 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++\n 10 files changed, 1135 insertions(+), 432 deletions(-)\n delete mode 100644 lib/librte_hash/rte_cuckoo_hash_x86.h\n create mode 100644 test/test/test_hash_readwrite.c"
