Peter,
Given many different hardware architectures one may run a single IGP
implementation on, this becomes impractical and complex as each hardware
architecture has its own specifics. One would rather keep the IGP
implementation hardware agnostic, rather than providing hardware specific hooks
for each platform it runs on.
This is why your software architecture has a Platform Dependent component. This
is a service that you should require from the PD layer.
I'm aware of the PD layer and that is not the issue. The problem is that
there is no common value to report across different PD layers, as each
architecture may have different number of queues involved, etc. Trying
to find a common value to report to IPGs across various PDs would
involve some PD specific logic and that is the part I'm referring to and
I would like NOT to get into.
thanks,
Peter
