[RFC] ethdev: introduce hairpin memory capabilities
Checks
Commit Message
This RFC introduces new hairpin queue configuration options through
rte_eth_hairpin_conf struct, allowing to tune Rx and Tx hairpin queues
memory configuration. Hairpin configuration is extended with the
following fields:
- use_locked_device_memory - If set, PMD will use specialized on-device
memory to store RX or TX hairpin queue data.
- use_rte_memory - If set, PMD will use DPDK-managed memory to store RX
or TX hairpin queue data.
- force_memory - If set, PMD will be forced to use provided memory
settings. If no appropriate resources are available, then device start
will fail. If unset and no resources are available, PMD will fallback
to using default type of resource for given queue.
Hairpin capabilities are also extended, to allow verification of support
of given hairpin memory configurations. Struct rte_eth_hairpin_cap is
extended with two additional fields of type rte_eth_hairpin_queue_cap:
- rx_cap - memory capabilities of hairpin RX queues.
- tx_cap - memory capabilities of hairpin TX queues.
Struct rte_eth_hairpin_queue_cap exposes whether given queue type
supports use_locked_device_memory and use_rte_memory flags.
