Subject: Re: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH] rte_delay_us can be replaced with user function
Date: Wed, 21 Sep 2016 15:12:57 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <2644416.cGCtye7R7u@xps13> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <8519806.gZT5cxUFJR@xps13>

Hi,

I think this feature should enter in the release 16.11.
We just need to make sure it is implemented with the right API.
Do you have any comment about managing several builtin handlers?
