I don't understand this sentence. I guess it can be completely removed. > A rawdevice represents a generic device map-able to a device flavour > not being currently handled out-of-the-box by DPDK framework. > A device which can be scanned on an installed bus (pci, fslmc, ...) > or instantiated through devargs, can be interfaced using > standardized APIs just like other standardized devices. > > This library introduces an API set which can be plugged on the > northbound side to the application layer, and on the southbound side > to the driver layer. > > The APIs of rawdev library exposes some generic operations which can > enable configuration and I/O with the raw devices. You should explain that it uses some opaque pointers. > Signed-off-by: Shreyansh Jain <shreyansh.j...@nxp.com> > --- > lib/librte_rawdev/Makefile | 27 ++ > lib/librte_rawdev/rte_rawdev.c | 540 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ > lib/librte_rawdev/rte_rawdev.h | 586 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ > lib/librte_rawdev/rte_rawdev_pmd.h | 588 > +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ > lib/librte_rawdev/rte_rawdev_version.map | 33 ++ Please add an entry in MAINTAINERS with EXPERIMENTAL tag. Sorry, no time to review the code myself. Thanks
