Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH v4 08/25] net/bnxt: remove cache tbl id from mapper class table
Date: Sat, 27 Jun 2020 03:00:33 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200627100050.19688-9-ajit.khaparde@broadcom.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200627100050.19688-1-ajit.khaparde@broadcom.com>

From: Kishore Padmanabha <kishore.padmanabha@broadcom.com>

The cache table id is not needed anymore since the value can
be calculated from resource sub type and direction.
