The coremask option in DPDK is difficult to use and we should be promoting the use of the corelist (-l) option. The patch series adjusts the docs to use -l EAL option instead of the -c option.
The patch series doc change only and is not required to be done in 17.02 release, but should be added to the 17.05 release. The -c option will be kept and not removed for now unless in the future we decide to deprecate the code. v2 - Fix taskset back to using -c Keith Wiles (11): doc/cryptodev: use corelist instead of coremask doc/faq: use corelist instead of coremask doc/freebsd: use corelist instead of coremask doc/howto: use corelist instead of coremask doc/linux: use corelist instead of coremask doc/nics: use corelist instead of coremask doc/prog_guide: use corelist instead of coremask doc/testpmd: use corelist instead of coremask doc/cryptoperf: use corelist instead of coremask doc/xen: use corelist instead of coremask doc/sample_app: use corelist instead of coremask doc/guides/cryptodevs/aesni_gcm.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/cryptodevs/aesni_mb.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/cryptodevs/kasumi.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/cryptodevs/null.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/cryptodevs/openssl.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/cryptodevs/snow3g.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/cryptodevs/zuc.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/faq/faq.rst | 4 ++- doc/guides/freebsd_gsg/build_sample_apps.rst | 9 ++++--- doc/guides/freebsd_gsg/install_from_ports.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/howto/flow_bifurcation.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/howto/lm_bond_virtio_sriov.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/howto/lm_virtio_vhost_user.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/linux_gsg/build_sample_apps.rst | 19 +++++++------- doc/guides/linux_gsg/nic_perf_intel_platform.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/linux_gsg/quick_start.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/nics/bnx2x.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/nics/cxgbe.rst | 4 +-- doc/guides/nics/ena.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/nics/i40e.rst | 4 +-- doc/guides/nics/intel_vf.rst | 7 +++-- doc/guides/nics/ixgbe.rst | 4 +-- doc/guides/nics/mlx4.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/nics/mlx5.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/nics/pcap_ring.rst | 14 +++++----- doc/guides/nics/qede.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/nics/szedata2.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/nics/thunderx.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/nics/vhost.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/nics/virtio.rst | 6 ++--- doc/guides/prog_guide/kernel_nic_interface.rst | 2 +- .../prog_guide/link_bonding_poll_mode_drv_lib.rst | 10 ++++---- doc/guides/prog_guide/multi_proc_support.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/sample_app_ug/cmd_line.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/sample_app_ug/dist_app.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/sample_app_ug/exception_path.rst | 4 +-- doc/guides/sample_app_ug/hello_world.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/sample_app_ug/intel_quickassist.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/sample_app_ug/ip_frag.rst | 4 +-- doc/guides/sample_app_ug/ip_reassembly.rst | 4 +-- doc/guides/sample_app_ug/ipv4_multicast.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/sample_app_ug/keep_alive.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/sample_app_ug/kernel_nic_interface.rst | 4 +-- doc/guides/sample_app_ug/l2_forward_cat.rst | 6 ++--- doc/guides/sample_app_ug/l2_forward_crypto.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/sample_app_ug/l2_forward_job_stats.rst | 2 +- .../sample_app_ug/l2_forward_real_virtual.rst | 2 +- .../sample_app_ug/l3_forward_access_ctrl.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/sample_app_ug/link_status_intr.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/sample_app_ug/load_balancer.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/sample_app_ug/multi_process.rst | 30 +++++++++++----------- doc/guides/sample_app_ug/performance_thread.rst | 20 +++++++-------- doc/guides/sample_app_ug/ptpclient.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/sample_app_ug/qos_scheduler.rst | 6 ++--- doc/guides/sample_app_ug/quota_watermark.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/sample_app_ug/rxtx_callbacks.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/sample_app_ug/skeleton.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/sample_app_ug/tep_termination.rst | 14 +++++----- doc/guides/sample_app_ug/test_pipeline.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/sample_app_ug/timer.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/sample_app_ug/vhost.rst | 4 +-- doc/guides/sample_app_ug/vm_power_management.rst | 4 +-- doc/guides/sample_app_ug/vmdq_dcb_forwarding.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/testpmd_app_ug/run_app.rst | 2 +- doc/guides/tools/cryptoperf.rst | 5 ++-- doc/guides/xen/pkt_switch.rst | 10 ++++---- 66 files changed, 145 insertions(+), 137 deletions(-) -- 2.8.0.GIT
