Folks, Few ABI observations based on the 20.05-rc2, (please correct me if I am wrong)
1. rte_ring.h - struct rte_ring Changes to the structure of rte_ring throws up a whole bunch of false positives that have been suppressed in libabigail.ignore. It is not used by end applications and should not be exposed in public headers. Suggest that in the v20.11 timeframe we use the opportunity to use opaque pointers in librte_efd, librte_hash, librte_pmd_ring, librte_ring, librte_pdump to make this issue go away permanently. 2. rte_cryptodev_pmd.h - struct rte_cryptodev_ops Similarly, changes to the structure of rte_cryptodev_ops are causing false positives, also suppressed in libabigail.ignore. It is not used by end applications and should not be exposed in public headers. 3. rte_bbdev.h - struct rte_bbdev_driver_info Similarly, changes to the structure rte_bbdev are causing false positives, also suppressed in libabigail.ignore. It is not used by end applications and should not be exposed in public headers.
