X-Git-Tag: v20.09-rc0~63
X-Git-Url: https://gerrit.fd.io/r/gitweb?p=vpp.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=6017ff0dd7a27c062d0ad4687bfc70a69747ac55

vcl: allow vcl worker index to be set by applications

When using vppcom_session* apis to setup TCP sessions in applications build outside of the VPP repository, it is necessary to set the worker_index explicitly when these apis are called from the none-VCL worker threads. An example is when data is to be sent to the TCP session that is originated from a different thread, like the main program thread or from the bin api thread. This change allows the application to set it.

Type: fix
