This patch set introduced vectorized datapath for packed ring. The size of packed ring descriptor is 16Bytes. Four batched descriptors can just placed into one cacheline. AVX512 instructions can well handle this kind of data. Packed ring TX datapath can fully transformed into vectorized datapath. Rx datapath also can be vectorized by limiated features(TSO and mergeable).
