Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH] doc: announce ABI change for old flow director APIs removing
Date: Tue, 11 Aug 2015 10:12:04 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1439259124-23762-1-git-send-email-jingjing.wu@intel.com> (raw)
APIs for flow director filters has been replaced by rte_eth_dev_filter_ctrl
by previous releases. Enic, ixgbe and i40e are switched to support filter_ctrl
APIs, so the old APIs are useless, and ready to be removed now.
This patch announces the ABI change for these APIs removing.
