Hello all.
Is there a way to deallocate an rte_ring? Maybe I'm missing something,
but I can't find an API function for that at
http://dpdk.org/doc/api/rte__ring_8h.html
Regards,
Dmitry

I have a data structure consisting of a rte_hash, a rte_ring and an array allocated with rte_zmalloc. All these besides the ring can be freed. So looks like I can't destruct my object after allocating. Strictly speaking, I don't have to. The need shouldn't arise in normal situation. I just considered writing allocating/deallocating function pairs and processing all allocation errors to be a good practice. Isn't it a bit strange to have rte_hash_free() and not have rte_ring_free()? What's the reason for this? Best wishes, Dmitry ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 4+ messages in thread
