However, be aware that it is very late in the DPDK 16.07 release cycle for us to take new content in, so please minimise the patchset to only the changes that are absolutely necessary for you. At this stage we can only take contributions on a best-effort basis, so having a smaller patchset will increase your chances that the patch may be merged.
