Ping for review and action on follow-up patches please. I hope we won't have to block patches to get things done.
Ferruh, I think we need an action plan. 12/03/2020 00:01, Thomas Monjalon: > This series aims to clean-up the big table of ethdev features: > http://doc.dpdk.org/guides/nics/overview.html#id1 > > We could reorganize the information in this table, > maybe split it or add/remove some rows. > Before going to such reorganization, we should clean it up. > > The first patch is fixing the look & size of the table with recent sphinx. > > The second and third patches are removing 8 columns which are > clearly unneeded: > - bnx2x_vf > - bonding > - kni > - nfp_vf > - null > - ring > - softnic > - vdev_netvsc > > More columns can be removed by merging PF/VF and vector datapaths. > If a feature cannot be supported in all cases, it should be marked > as partially supported (P). > If a feature is PF-specific (like flow control), that's OK to mark > it fully supported because it's obviously impossible for VF. > There are also some features which were probably marked in some > columns and missed in its VF or vector counterpart. > Please work to merge and drop these 16 columns: > - cxgbevf > - fm10k_vf > - hns3_vf > - i40e_vec > - i40e_vf > - i40e_vf_vec > - iavf_vec > - ice_vec > - igb_vf > - ixgbe_vec > - ixgbe_vf > - ixgbe_vf_vec > - octeontx2_vec > - octeontx2_vf > - qede_vf > - virtio_vec > > The total gain is to reduce the table size from 71 to 47 columns. > > Please send patches for Chelsio, Huawei, Intel, Marvell and virtio.
