[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v6 0/6] dpdk: introduce __rte_internal tag

[Haiyue Wang <haiyue.wang@intel.com>]

Move the internal function into INTERNAL session to avoid the ABI
checking, and it is only used for DPDK drivers or related library.

__rte_internal funA

INTERNAL {
	global:
	
	funA
};

v6: split into small patches, and add the missed handling.

v5: add the checkpatch for __rte_internal style

v4: add the ABI check suppression rules

v3: based on Neil's v2 patch https://patchwork.dpdk.org/cover/54771/
    Use the ALLOW_INTERNAL_API to mark this new feature.

Haiyue Wang (6):
  eal: add internal ABI tag definition
  build: enable internal API tag
  mk: add internal tag check
  devtools: ignore internal ABI check
  devtools: exempt internal ABI checking
  devtools: enforce internal tag at the beginning
