This is exactly what we are looking to do. The PDEV API is meant to be generic, while the current librte_pipeline API is limited to SW only. The intention is to transform the current librte_pipeline code into driver/plugin for the new PDEV API, with hopefully lots of other devices supporting PDEV through their own drivers.

It would be great to be able to expose some/all of the eventdev features through PDEV API, let's look at this together.
