Thanks Stephen for fixing this. But considering it was broken for a while and nobody complained, and initial developers seems lost interest and it is relatively hard code to maintain, do we still want to keep this support. Can we probe again motivation and benefit of eBPF support in tap PMD, and if it is still relevant?
