Subject: ixgbe vPMD question
Date: Thu, 17 Sep 2015 21:28:31 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <55FB226F.2040707@linaro.org> (raw)

Hi,

The recv function does a prefetch on cacheline1, however it seems to me 
that rx_pkts[pos] should be uninitialized pointer at that time:

http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk/tree/drivers/net/ixgbe/ixgbe_rxtx_vec.c#n287

So I guess it prefetches only random value. Or am I missing something?

Regards,

Zoltan
