An 8-byte reserved field will be added to the structure ``rte_event_timer``
to
support future extensions.
-* eventdev: Reserved bytes of ``rte_event_crypto_request`` is a space holder
- for ``response_info``. Both should be decoupled for better clarity.
- New space for ``response_info`` can be made by changing
- ``rte_event_crypto_metadata`` type to structure from union.
- This change is targeted for DPDK 21.11.
-
* metrics: The function ``rte_metrics_init`` will have a non-void return
in order to notify errors instead of calling ``rte_exit``.
