The code is moved with its git history in
http://git.dpdk.org/dpdk-kmods/
The move process started with these commands:
cd dpdk
dir=igb_uio
path1=lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/$dir
path2=kernel/linux/$dir
git format-patch -o $dir 0c9a540ed2.. -- $path1 $path2
find $dir -type f -exec sed -i "s,$path1\|$path2,linux/$dir," '{}' \;
cd ../dpdk-kmods
git am ../dpdk/$dir/*
git filter-branch --force
--index-filter "git rm --cached --ignore-unmatch
linux/$dir/Makefile"
--prune-empty --tag-name-filter cat -- --all
Makefile and meson.build files were not imported at all.
Some other commits were skipped (virtio, vmxnet3 and Xen dom0 support),
because they were not very useful and reverted later in the history.
Anyway the original history is available forever in dpdk.git.
Currently it cannot compile because the file rte_pci_dev_feature_defs.h
is missing, defining enum rte_intr_mode. An option is to import this file.
It would be nice to add a README file in the new igb_uio directory.
Volunteers welcome :)
