Hi all, I just wanted to propose an idea for extending the packet headromm/tailroom feature of ODP linux-generic platform.
As far as I'm aware, the default values for initialize a packet headroom/tailroom can be found at config.h, and if someone wish to modify it, then ODP must be recompiled. Since I'm currently taking advantage of it to manage some metadata, I think would be interesting to provide some mechanism to set the packet headroom/tailrrom size when pool memory is initialized inside an application which uses ODP framework. For example, having a new parameter on odp_pool_params_t to set it up (when the pool is type of packet pool, of course). Does it make sense for you? So far, I haven't looked in detail the source code of linux-generic implementation, but if you think that this proposal is not too difficult to implement, I could try to do it. Furthermore, it would be a good way to get more involve in the ODP developement. Please, don't hesitate to make suggestions for this proposal. Does it make sense for you? Thank you so much for your support. Best regards, Genís Riera Pérez.
