From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Bruce Richardson Subject: [PATCH] ixgbe: fix icc issue with mbuf initializer Date: Mon, 3 Nov 2014 11:11:16 +0000 Message-ID: <1415013076-30314-1-git-send-email-bruce.richardson@intel.com> To: dev-VfR2kkLFssw@public.gmane.org Return-path: List-Id: patches and discussions about DPDK List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , Errors-To: dev-bounces-VfR2kkLFssw@public.gmane.org Sender: "dev" When using Intel C++ compiler(icc) 14.0.1.106 or the older icc 13.x version, the mbuf initializer variable was not getting configured correctly, as the mb_def variable was not set correctly. This is due to an issue with icc (DPD200249565 which already been fixed in icc 14.0.2 and newer compiler release) where it incorrectly calculates the field offsets with initializers when zero-sized fields are used in a structure. To work around this, the code in ixgbe_rxq_vec_setup does not setup the fields using an initializer, but instead assigns the values individually in code NOTE: There is no performance impact to this change as the queue setup functions are not data-plane APIs, but are only used at app initialization.
