As described in more details in the attached documentation (see patch
contents), this virtual device driver manages NetVSC interfaces in virtual
machines hosted by Hyper-V/Azure platforms.
This driver does not manage traffic nor Ethernet devices directly; it acts
as a thin configuration layer that automatically instantiates and controls
fail-safe PMD instances combining tap and PCI sub-devices, so that each
NetVSC interface is exposed as a single consolidated port to DPDK
applications.
PCI sub-devices being hot-pluggable (e.g. during VM migration),
applications automatically benefit from increased throughput when present
and automatic fallback on NetVSC otherwise without interruption thanks to
fail-safe's hot-plug handling.
Once initialized, the sole job of the vdev_netvsc driver is to regularly
scan for PCI devices to associate with NetVSC interfaces and feed their
addresses to corresponding fail-safe instances.

Ethdev Tx offloads API has changed since:
commit cba7f53b71 ("ethdev: introduce Tx queue offloads API")
This commit support the new Tx offloads API.
The code which fills in txq_flags in default_txconf is preserved
because rte_eth_dev_info_get() lacks conversion between offloads
and txq_flags fields which means that a legacy application which
relies on default_txconf will fail to configure Tx queues in the
case when some bits in txq_flags are mandatory.

In case of inline protocol processed ingress traffic, the packet may not
have enough information to determine the security parameters with which
the packet was processed. In such cases, application could get metadata
from the packet which could be used to identify the security parameters
with which the packet was processed.
Application could register "userdata" with the security session, and
this could be retrieved from the metadata of inline processed packets.
The metadata returned by "rte_security_get_pkt_metadata()" will be
device specific. Also the driver is expected to return the application
registered "userdata" as is, without any modifications.

The pointer to the user parameter of the callback registration is
automatically pass to the callback function.
There is no point to allow changing this user parameter by a caller.
That's why this parameter is always set to NULL by PMDs and set only
in ethdev layer before calling the callback function.
The history is that the user parameter was initially used
by the callback implementation to pass some information
between the application and the driver:
c1ceaf3ad0 ("ethdev: add an argument to internal callback function")
Then a new parameter has been added to leave the user parameter
to its standard usage of context given at registration:
d6af1a13d7 ("ethdev: add return values to callback process API")
The NULL parameter in the internal callback processing function
is now removed. It makes clear that the callback parameter is user
managed and opaque from a DPDK point of view.

VxLAN GRO doesn't check if input packets have correct checksums and
doesn't update checksums for output packets. Additionally, it assumes

The DPDK uses the Open Source BSD-3-Clause license for the core libraries
and drivers. The kernel components are naturally GPLv2 licensed.
Many of the files in the DPDK source code contain the full text of the
applicable license. For example, most of the BSD-3-Clause files contain a
full copy of the BSD-3-Clause license text.
Including big blocks of License headers in all files blows up the source
code with mostly redundant information. An additional problem is that even
the same licenses are referred to by a number of slightly varying text
blocks (full, abbreviated, different indentation, line wrapping and/or
white space, with obsolete address information, ...) which makes validation
and automatic processing a nightmare.
To make this easier, DPDK uses of a single line reference to
Unique License Identifiers in source files as defined by the Linux
Foundation's SPDX project https://spdk.org.
Adding license information in this fashion, rather than adding full license
text, can be more efficient for developers; decreases errors; and improves
automated detection of licenses. The current set of valid, predefined SPDX
identifiers is set forth on the SPDX License List at
https://spdx.org/licenses/.
For example, to label a file as subject to the BSD-3-Clause license,
the following text would be used as the top line of the file.
SPDX-License-Identifier: BSD-3-Clause
Note: Any new file contributions in DPDK shall adhere to the above scheme.
It is also recommended to replace or at least amend the existing license
text in the code with SPDX-License-Identifiers.
Any exception to DPDK IP policies shall be approved by DPDK tech board and
DPDK Governing Board. Steps for any exception approval:
1. Mention the appropriate license identifier form SPDX. If the license is
not listed in SPDX Licenses. It is the submitters responsibiliity to get
it first listed.
2. Get the required approval from the DPDK Technical Board. Technical board
may advise the author to check alternate means first. If no other
alternatives are found and the merit of the contributions are important
for DPDK's mission, it may decide on such exception with two-thirds vote
of the members.
3. Technical board then approach Governing board for such limited approval
for the given contribution only.
Any approvals shall be documented in "licenses/exceptions.txt" with record
dates.
Note: From the legal point of view, this patch is supposed to be only a
change to the textual representation of the license information, but in no
way any change to the actual license terms. With this patch applied, all
files will still be licensed under the same terms they were before.

This updates mlx4 documentation and DPDK release notes
to reflect the PMD support for rdma-core from linux-rdma.
- PMD is now freed from Mellanox OFED and now only depends on the
public rdma-core package (v15 and above) instead.
(see https://github.com/linux-rdma/rdma-core/releases)
This PMD should run under Linux v4.14 and above.
- In case any of the above requirements can't be satisfied,
Mellanox OFED v4.2 and above also provide an updated rdma-core
as well back-ported kernel modules for most Linux distributions
and previous Linux versions.
(see http://www.mellanox.com/page/products_dyn?product_family=26).

The feature was added at the end of the table.
And the description was between the anchor _nic_features_timesync
and its title.
It is moved near related features with a new anchor.
It is also renamed from "mbuf fast free" to "fast mbuf free".

The net PMD overview table is big and required to be shrunk.
The crypto PMD tables had variable column sizes: the latest
columns were smaller.
The minimum width is set to 0.9em without any forced padding.
The maximum width is set to 2em.
The width of the first column set by sphinx is overridden to 0
for full elasticity.

This is a wrapper to Linux kernel get_maintainer.pl file and only
supports parsing MAINTAINERS file (no git fallback etc..)
Requires DPDK_GETMAINTAINER_PATH devel config option set, please check
devtools/load-devel-config.
DPDK_GETMAINTAINER_PATH should be full path to the get_maintainer.pl
script, like:
DPDK_GETMAINTAINER_PATH=~/linux/scripts/get_maintainer.pl
Can be used individually:
./devtools/get-maintainer.sh <my.patch>
Or via git send-email, to add maintainers automatically:
git send-email --to-cmd ./devtools/get-maintainer.sh \
--cc dev@dpdk.org HEAD -4
Currently there is an ugly workaround to be able to use Linux script out
of the kernel tree, later better method can replace it.

Default value is 0, meaning that IOMMU support is disabled
