There's been a lot of activity on the mailing list recently on DPDK support for ARM. It's great to see the project being enhanced to embrace a new architecture.
We have seen some duplication of efforts on this, so we think it would make a good topic for a community call. This will give everybody a chance to share their plans so we can be clear on who's doing what and make sure that we avoid overlaps. We'll host a community call on this next Tuesday (24th Nov) at 15:00-16:00 GMT. Details on the proposed agenda, the time in a couple of other timezones, and how to join the online meeting are included below. Agenda: ARMv7 & v8 ports: - Summary of what's been submitted for 2.2 and what the remaining gaps are (Dave Hunt) - Discussion on plans for further contributions in this area External Memory Manager: - Summary of our plans for DPDK 2.3 (Venky Venkatesan) - Do others plan to do work in this area? Other DPDK/ARM plans: - Does anybody else have plans for ARM-related work in DPDK that they can share? When: Tue, Nov 24, 2015 15:00 - 16:00 GMT Tue, Nov 24, 2015 07:00 - 08:00 PST Tue, Nov 24, 2015 10:00 - 11:00 EST Tue, Nov 24, 2015 16:00 - 17:00 PST Meeting Details: You can join from your computer, tablet or smartphone: https://global.gotomeeting.com/join/535221101 You can also dial in using your phone.
