Subject: examples/l3fwd: support event vector
X-Git-Url: http://git.droids-corp.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e8adca1951d45064246b8668946bd12841cfd18b;p=dpdk.git

examples/l3fwd: support event vector

Added changes to receive packets as event vector. By default this is
disabled and can be enabled using the option --event-vector. Vector
size and timeout to form the vector can be configured using options
--event-vector-size and --event-vector-tmo.

Example:
dpdk-l3fwd -l 0-3 -n 4 -- -p 0x03 --mode=eventdev \
	--eventq-sched=ordered --event-vector --event-vector-size 16
