[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 1/2] lpm: extend ip4 next_hop and add config structure

Michal Kobylinski michalx.kobylinski at intel.com
Fri Jan 29 13:12:52 CET 2016


As next_hop field for IPv4 is increased now the maximum number of tbl8s is 2^24.
A new rte_lpm_config structure is used so LPM library will allocate
exactly the amount of memory which is necessary to hold application’s rules.

Changed structures in LPM library:
rte_lpm_tbl24_entry and rte_lpm_tbl8_entry to one structure
rte_lpm_tbl_entry.
