Hi,

We have several PMDs in DPDK that are using the same underlying common libr=
aries.
In addition, we have plans to add some new common service into DPDK that al=
ready introduces too much complexity with the way that the code is written =
now.
Therefore, we would like to move all our common functions calls into one sh=
ared/common folder in DPDK and we need to find proper place for this purpos=
e.

Can you suggest on such a place?

Regards,
Liron
