Subject: [dpdk-dev] Retire x86 32 bit?
I wonder if x86 32 bit is still useful?
Many distributions no longer support it, and not sure if it is tested
througly by anyone.
Maybe time to deprecate it (gradually)?
Pure 32 bit, or x86-64 instructions and registers used in 32 bit mode (which
can be faster).
.
Pure 32bit in our case. We do not use x32 ABI.
