For the libraries here that are enabled for Windows are the APIs being marked stable have real implementations or just stubs on Windows? If they are just stubs then i think more review is necessary for the stubbed APIs to understand that they *can* be implemented on Windows. I would prefer not to have to encounter this later and have to go through the overhead of deprecation like with rte_thread_ctrl_create again. This obviously doesn't apply to libraries that are not currently enabled for Windows. If the implementations aren't stubs then that's okay too. Ty
