Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 1/2] net/mlx4: split the definitions to the header file
Date: Wed, 22 Feb 2017 13:42:12 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <74798f347a5b1fad28037b713ad83048c227a2ca.1487770570.git.vasilyf@mellanox.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <74798f347a5b1fad28037b713ad83048c227a2ca.1487685098.git.vasilyf@mellanox.com>
Make some structs/defines visible from different source files by placing
them into mlx4.h header.
