            Bug ID: 1794
           Summary: mlx5 PMD does not follow global symbol naming
                    conventions
           Product: DPDK
           Version: 25.07
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: Normal
         Component: ethdev
          Assignee: dev@dpdk.org
          Reporter: stephen@networkplumber.org
  Target Milestone: ---

To avoid potential symbol name conflicts all drivers should use a consistent
prefix on global symbols. These functions and variable names should either =
be
renamed or better yet made static where possible.


 The MLX5 device has some problematic symbols:
