Subject: [dpdk-dev] RFC - increasing the size of ethenet device name
Date: Wed, 5 Jul 2017 10:58:07 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170705105807.758dcf13@xeon-e3> (raw)
In order to support VMBUS, the ethernet device name needs to be increased.
What would be good timing; vmbus support will be in 17.11.
Either break ABI now, and vmbus won't have to do it later.
Or wait and make it part of of VMBUS patches?
