If it's supported, AVX2 paths will be chosen. If not, SSE is chosen. + If the CPU supports AVX512 and EAL argument ``--force-max-simd-bitwidth`` + is set to 512, AVX512 paths will be chosen. - ``Offload features`` - The supported HW offload features are described in the document ice_vec.ini. + The supported HW offload features are described in the document ice.ini, + A value "P" means the offload feature is not supported by vector path. If any not supported features are used, ICE vector PMD is disabled and the normal paths are chosen.
