Hi Tonghao, Xiangxia

In general, I have several comments for your patch sets.
1. As there are 6 patches in your patch set, so a cover letter is needed.
2. You have send several version of patch sets, so '--in-reply-to' is needed to
    make sure all can see the history version together. Please follow the guidance
    on dpdk.org to contribute patches.
3. I saw one ACKs for one of your patches. You still need to get ACKs for all of
    your patch set. Please address the comments, and ask maintainers to help directly.
4. As today is the integration deadline, I don't know if canbe applied in 18.02. Anyway
    I will apply it as early as possibel whenever everything is ready and reasonable.

Thank you very much for your contribution!

Regards,
Helin
