execuse me, one of the Windows check is failing but I didn't find where's the build log, nor to determine whether it is related.

> KNI ioctl functions copy data from userspace lib, and this interface
> of kmod is not compatible indeed. If the user use incompatible rte_kni.ko
> bad things happen: sometimes various fields contain garbage value,
> sometimes it cause a kmod soft lockup.
>
> Some common distros ship their own rte_kni.ko, so this is likely to

> This patch add abi version checking between userland lib and kmod so
> that:
>
> * if kmod ioctl got a wrong abi magic, it refuse to go on
> * if userland lib, probed a wrong abi version via newly added ioctl, it
>   also refuse to go on
