The standard was introduced after the driver have been submitted, I agree that a new way is present, but when it was introduced a modification on the whole code though DPDK should have been done to avoid mixed ways. I prefer to have a single commit replacing the (void)foo by __rte_unused, it will also help the backports to the stable branches. Thanks, -- NĂ©lio Laranjeiro 6WIND
