Hi, 2016-01-05 16:34, Reshma Pattan:
From: reshmapa <redacted> Patches 1 and 2 removes RTE_PROC_PRIMARY_OR_ERR_RET and RTE_PROC_PRIMARY_OR_RET macro usage from rte_ether and rte_cryptodev libraries to allow API access to secondary process.
I don't understand the use case. What is the role of the primary process if queues are configured by the secondary process? You have not answered to Michael: http://dpdk.org/ml/archives/dev/2015-December/030811.html Other question first asked by Michael http://dpdk.org/ml/archives/dev/2015-December/030777.html There are some comments asserting that it is not safe for secondary. And your answer was it is safe for vdev? And what about PCI devices?
