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 functions from ethdev

I don't think that I will have time to do step 1 in 17.02 apart from sending the deprecation notice.
I will add step 1 and step 2 to the task list for 17.05.

Bernard.
