I see changes in wrong patches and the pmd API ending up in cnxk_rvu_lf.h instead of rte_pmd_cnxk_rvu_lf.h (which I think was the intention). I am a bit skeptical about the pmd API that gives back a PCI bar address to an application. It looks more like the pmd specific API is unfinished and you are leaving a door open for some guy who has the hw datasheet... Thanks. -- David Marchand
