I agree. I plan to clean up the API in the next release of DPDK. For
exmaple, there are private header files that are called rte_*.h that
expose private functions to the documentation. These need to be renamed,
as well as moving some structures around. I can also look at re-naming
some of the vsi vars to something more generic.
Thanks,
Dave.
