Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2] doc: add deprecation notice on EAL mem config
Date: Thu,  9 May 2019 13:51:45 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1557427905-13766-1-git-send-email-erik.g.carrillo@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1557355686-4216-1-git-send-email-erik.g.carrillo@intel.com>

It is planned to make the rte_mem_config struct of the EAL private to
remove it from the visible ABI.  Add a notice to announce the intention.

Signed-off-by: Erik Gabriel Carrillo <erik.g.carrillo@intel.com>

changes in v2:
 - Original deprecation notice announced a change to the rte_mem_config
   struct that would break ABI.  Update the notice to instead announce
   the struct will be made private.  (Stephen, Anatoly, David)
