This series applies on top of
"[PATCH] eal: define generic vector types" [1][2]

Using built-in vector types forces compilers to consider SIMD instructions in
specific places in order to improve performance on both IBM POWER8 and Intel
architectures.

For example, testpmd single-thread I/O forwarding packets per second
performance is improved by 6% on Intel platforms.

  net/mlx5: prepare Tx vectorization
  net/mlx5: use work queue buffer as a raw buffer
  net/mlx5: use vector types to speed up processing
  net/mlx5: fix missing inline attributes
  net/mlx5: move static prototype
  net/mlx5: optimize copy of Ethernet header
  net/mlx5: remove inefficient prefetching

Series applied to dpdk-next-net/master, thanks.

It will not be pulled in mainline because compilation fails on 32-bit:

drivers/net/mlx5/mlx5_rxtx.c: In function ‘mlx5_tx_burst’:
drivers/net/mlx5/mlx5_rxtx.c:523:10: error:
right shift count >= width of type [-Werror=shift-count-overflow]
     addr >> 32,
          ^~

Please Ferruh, remove the series from next-net.

Hi Thomas,

Wait, I'll submit a fix in few minutes.

Regards,
