Hey Folks,

Here a v14 of the DPCLS Function Pointer patchset, as has been
presented at OVS Conf in Nov '18, and discussed on the ML since
then.
I'm aware of the soft-freeze for 2.12, I feel this patchset has
had
enough reviews/versions/testing to be merged in 2.12.

Thanks Ilya for input and suggestions on v13. Only change is that
the implementation of the blocks array memory allocation is now
using DEFINE_PER_THREAD_MALLOCED_DATA() macro, allowing for proper
de-allocation of the allocated memory after a thread exits.

Regards, -Harry

Thanks Harry for the v14. Just testing it and it seems in good
shape
to me.

Thanks Ilya for the suggestions around the per thread allocation
for
scratch as well, this feedback has helped and is resolving multithread
issues spotted in the earlier series.

I feel the patchset is now in a state that it should be considered
for the 2.12 release.

We've had testing from a number of groups over the series (Red Hat,
Arm, Intel, Samsung) with positive results across the board.

It also opens up opportunities for further improving the dpcls in
the
2.13 release next year.

As such I think it's worth an exception to merge before Mondays
feature freeze so that it benefits from the 4 week settling period
before
release.

Are there any objections to this?

Thanks
Ian

Hi All,,

I haven't heard any objections to this since yesterday. My
intentions
are to merge this today.

Hi. Sorry, it was only 2.5 hours of my working time since your
previous
mail.
Are you at office 24/7?

Really? I thought my last email was yesterday evening, maybe there was
a
delay in it going out on my side, it's OVS release crunch time so  tend
to
lose track of time, I'm pretty sure I slept for a few hours since the
last
mail :)

I'm testing the v14 now and will reply with results in a couple of
hours.
Is it OK for you?


Thanks for testing on the latest revsion Ilya, much appreciated. If
you
come across anything untowards today let us know :).

I finished testing v14. No issues observed. Slight performance
difference
with a previous versions, but nothing significant. So, it's OK for me.

Thanks Ilya, can I add your ack for the series with the amendment on
patch 5 you flagged?

OK. Sure.

Cool, thank you very much for the work on this, I'm not being finicky but for 
such a change I think it's worth having two maintainers on board for the 
commits.

Thanks
Ian

Thanks all for the work on this. Pushed to master.

Regards
Ian
