Commit Message

Nipun Gupta Oct. 9, 2019, 7:32 a.m. UTC
This patch introduces a `flag` in the Eth TX adapter enqueue API.
Some drivers may support burst functionality only with the packets
having same destination device and queue.

The flag `RTE_EVENT_ETH_TX_ADAPTER_ENQUEUE_SAME_DEST` can be used
to indicate this so the underlying driver, for drivers to utilize
burst functionality appropriately.

---

Changes in v4:
 - Update rel note specifying the API change
 - Remove redundant rte_event_tx_adapter_enqueue_same_dest API

Changes in v3:
 - remove flag from internal txa_enqueue_same_dest internal API
 - ABI version update in makefile, meson and rel_notes
 - Few comments update

Changes in v2:
 - have separate internal API in tx adapter for sending burst packets to
   same eth dev, queue pair on the basis of the passed flag
 - fix compilation of examples/eventdev_pipeline/

For the if (flags) condition to work for the PMDs that support RTE_EVENT_ETH_TX_ADAPTER_CAP_INTERNAL_PORT but do not have a txa_enqueue_same_dest callback, doesn't the dev->txa_enqueue_same_dest pointer need to be set to the same value as dev->txa_enqueue ?

Thanks,

Something like below would work, but it would be unnecessary additional cost
	if (flags && dev->txa_enqueue_same_dest)

Instead the drivers can have both the function pointers pointing to the same 
function in such cases. Seems legitimate?
Ill add the function pointers in the octeontx and octeontx2 drivers in the next spin.

Nipun
