* [dpdk-dev] [PATCH] net/mlx5: move GTP mask define to correct location @ 2020-06-10 13:25 Dekel Peled 2020-06-14 10:29 ` Raslan Darawsheh 2020-06-16 10:27 ` Ferruh Yigit 0 siblings, 2 replies; 10+ messages in thread From: Dekel Peled @ 2020-06-10 13:25 UTC (permalink / raw) To: matan, viacheslavo, rasland; +Cc: dev Recent patch [1] added definition of mask MLX5_GTP_FLAGS_MASK, just above function flow_dv_validate_item_gtp(), where it is used. Patch was applied together with other patches which modified the same file, so the mask was located further away from the function it is used in. This patch moves the mask definition to the proper location.
