[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] hash: add rte_hash_set_cmp_func() function to DPDK_2.2.

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] hash: add rte_hash_set_cmp_func() function to DPDK_2.2.

[Yu Nemo Wenbin]

Give user a chance to customize the hash key compare function.
The default rte_hash_cmp_eq function is set in the rte_hash_create
function, but these builtin ones may not be good enough, so the user
may call this to override the default one.

Why did you send this patch again? I see that the only thing you changed was the title,
and you don't need to include "to DPDK_2.2" in there. The only comment I had is that
you should have included versioning of the patch ("PATCH v2 or v3").

Thanks,
Pablo
