If I remember well, you were targetting DPDK 20.08
to introduce a new regex PMD.
I am surprised this roadmap mentions only reviewing the API.

Yes. If I understand the concern correctly. It may translate to NOT
have regexdev gets merged to v20.08 as
1) I dont see the PMD in Mellanox roadmap
and
2) We need at least one HW driver to merge a subsystem code.

Mellanox plans to have a driver ready for 20.08.
In DPDK 20.08 Mellanox Roadmap it states:
Introduce new rte_regex API as one of the main things we plan
for this release.

This is also why I must get your ack on the RTE level API.

Best,
Ori

Mellanox PMD is in 20.08 roadmap.

The real question is about the plan for the driver based on libpcre,
which was announced in the previous roadmap?
Do you want to drop it from the roadmap page?

No. Planning to postpone to the next release.

It seems packet mirroring never got implemented?
octeontx2 has been replaced by cnxk,
but I don't find any mirroring in cnxk as well.

Should I remove it from the online roadmap?
