Microsoft DPDK 23.07 Release Roadmap 1. Atomics Abstraction
Introduce atomics abstraction to DPDK, allowing DPDK and applications to optionally use standard C11 atomics. The work is initially targeted for the DPDK release 23.07 and opens the opportunity for DPDK to be used on a wider range of platform and toolchain combinations. http://patches.dpdk.org/project/dpdk/list/?series=26897 2. MSVC Toolchain Progressive Enablement (Initial Phase) The initial work package targeting the DPDK release 23.07 introduces changes to establish use of the toolchain/platform. The enablement of the MSVC toolchain is intended to permit expansion of the DPDK user base, who are currently constrained by security, compliance, and servicing requirements in their operating environments. http://patches.dpdk.org/project/dpdk/list/?series=26662 Note: Once the initial series is merged this roadmap notice will be updated to reflect additional series contributing toward the initial phase. In alignment with the Windows port policy & limitations [1], the scope of changes introduced in patch series is limited and the work is being done in pieces to minimize potential impact on existing platform/toolchain combinations. 1. http://doc.dpdk.org/guides/windows_gsg/intro.html#limitations
