This is the third and last part of XPS patch-set which contains implementation of manual pinning of rx queues to pmd threads.
Manual pinning API was discussed here: http://openvswitch.org/pipermail/dev/2016-July/074674.html This patch-set based on top of "[PATCH v4] XPS implementation (Second part of XPS patch-set)." http://openvswitch.org/pipermail/dev/2016-July/075122.html First patch implements passing of 'other_config' column from 'Interface' table to datapath. This is required to pass pinning configuration to dpif-netdev. Note: IMHO, pinning configuration is not connected with netdev, so, it shouldn't be passed via 'options'. 'other_config' is not used by anyone, so, I think, it's a good place to store such information and push it down to datapath. Second patch is a refactoring to decrease code duplication. Third patch is a modified version of the last patch from v2: "dpif-netdev: Add dpif-netdev/pmd-rxq-set appctl command." It was modified to get configuration pushed via 'port_set_config'. Ilya Maximets (3): bridge: Pass interface's configuration to datapath. util: Expose function nullable_string_is_equal. dpif-netdev: Introduce pmd-rxq-affinity.
