Currently first patch dumps all shared code, second all the DPDK driver files. Later patches does in each patch, Makefile based build system, meson based build system and documentation. First question if all shared code are used, if not please drop the ones that are not used as much as possible. Second please try to split into the logical pieces, like a logical piece can be setting MTU (just a sample) and you can put shared code, dpdk code and documentation related to it in same patch. Also can you please start the series with a skeleton, which introduces the build system files, configs, Maintainer file update, generic docs. At this stage code can be empty, and the driver can be disabled by default. And if you have to, second patch can have a minimum required shared code drop. After this the driver can be built gradually feature by feature, perhaps starting from the probe/remove support. Thanks, ferruh
