- The suggestion I did offline to Thomas was to move pci stuff in pci headers.
We are trying to move from the "all pci" code in eal to accomodate for
other "buses" / architectures.
Having a pci macro in a generic header like rte_dev.h is wrong to me.
Moving this to a new header like pmd_register.h sounds like a new
generic header with pci specific stuff in it.
So, I am not sure I follow you Neil.
Can you elaborate ?
- Why do you want to centralise the tag naming ?
To avoid collisions ?
Well, adding those tags should not happen that often and I think we
can maintain this with careful reviews.
