Hey guys, In buffer_node.h, there are the following macros: - vlib_validate_buffer_enqueue_x1 - vlib_validate_buffer_enqueue_x2 - vlib_validate_buffer_enqueue_x4
In a node, I was just wondering what was the use idea behind that ? Is it for a reason of speed ? I mean, you're obviously faster if you process 4 packets horizontally than one after the other. Why then, in the sample plugin, is the "x4" version not used ? A "perfect" plugin would use each of them to cover each case, right ? Also, why not having a "x8" (or more) version ? I guess it's either for a performance issue or to stop at a specific ceiling. Thanks !
