Sorry, this series cannot be applied as is because it is breaking more than EAL API. The API of mbuf and mempool are also changed. We need to choose one of these three options: 1/ accept to break all API in 17.11 2/ postpone the whole series to 18.02 3/ rename only EAL API in 17.11 and postpone mbuf/mempool One more comment: For such a large change, we should provide a script in devtools to help porting the applications. I suggest a sed script.
