Subject: Re: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH] net: introduce IPv4 ihl and version fields
Date: Thu, 3 Jun 2021 08:58:42 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <859fa4c0-a218-b711-2839-026bf84d8c9a@huawei.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <98CBD80474FA8B44BF855DF32C47DC35C617E2@smartserver.smartshare.dk>

Hi, Morten and all,
	I have a questions which has bothering me for a long time.
	What's the difference between API and ABI?
	Why does this patch does not breake ABI, but break API(maybe)?
	
	Hope for your reply, thanks.
