[dpdk-dev] ixgbe-specific bypass functions

2016-12-19 Thread Thomas Monjalon
Hi Bernard, You moved some VF functions to ixgbe.h. Do you think we could do the same kind of work to move bypass functions from ethdev to ixgbe API? I would see a 2 steps move: 1/ in 17.02 * copy functions in ixgbe.h * use them in testpmd * deprecate ethdev functions 2/ in 17.05 * remove bypass
