+Paul, Hello Maxime, Thanks for all your constructive comments, but we do the same process for the CVL shared code update to DPDK upstream on the previous release. This series of patches are extracted/reorganized/squashed from the ND released packages, which the shared code difference between 1905 and 1908 can be more than 200 commits from the original shared code repo. IMHO, there might be some reasons for take all these patches into one patchset. - the patchset try to keeps the history order as the commits in the original shared code repo. - the relatively behind patch in the patchset may have dependency on the front patches. - it's difficult to split this series into multiple ones, since the patches are irregular and squashed. Best Regards, Leyi Rong
