Hi,
Please find below roadmap of NXP for 24.11 release:
bus/fslmc:
========
Upgrade MC firmware to 10.39 for DPAA2 platform. Latest MC
version with general bug fixes, TM issue fix for >8 queues, and API
enhancements for flow distribution statistics.
net/dpaa2:
=========
- Flow APIs implementation enhancement and bug fixes.
net/dpaa:
========
- IEEE1588 support
The DPAA driver supports IEEE1588 (Precision Time Protocol) for
precise clock synchronization.
- OH port support
Introducing Offline (O/H) port support, enabling hardware-based
packet processing and loopback capabilities. This feature allows for efficient
packet exchange between applications, leveraging two queues for receive and
send operations. With a maximum speed of 3.75 Mpps (2.5 Gbps), O/H ports
facilitate communication between applications, enabling use cases like
inter-process communication and packet processing.
net/eQoS:
========
The eQoS Ethernet Driver is a new DPDK driver proposed for the
24.11 release, supporting NXP's i.MX8MP, i.MX8DXL, i.MX91, and i.MX93 platforms.
net/enetc:
========
- support new ethernet enetc4 driver version4 of existing Enetc driver on
NXP i.MX95 platform, featuring:
* Virtual Functions (VFs) for virtualized environments
* VF-PF messaging for enhanced feature control
* Multiple queues with RSS-based distribution for optimized network performance
net/enetfec:
==========
Improves enetfec driver with:
- Coverity bug fixes, addressing potential security vulnerabilities
- Datapath logic fixes to resolve non-cache coherent platform issues
crypto/dpaax:
===========
- Improves crypto/dpaax functionality with:
- Fixes for PDCP descriptors, ensuring accurate data processing
- Debugging enhancements for easier issue identification and resolution
- Memory leak fixes, preventing resource waste and ensuring stability
- optimizations
These enhancements improve the reliability, stability, performance and
debuggability of crypto on dpaax platforms.
dma/dpaax:
==========
Complete overhaul of the DMA driver code for DPAA1 and DPAA2
platforms, focusing on:
- Simplified code structure for improved maintainability
- Enhanced readability for easier understanding and debugging
- Future-proof design for seamless integration of upcoming features
Apart from that:
* Enhances the memory dump in proc-info application.
* Enhances the l3fwd application for route rules.
* Suggestions and fixes some meson related options related to installation
directories, binaries and source code.
Regards,
Gagan
