[dpdk-stable] [PATCH 3/3] lib: remind experimental status in library headers

David Marchand david.marchand at redhat.com
Fri May 22 08:58:55 CEST 2020


The following libraries are experimental, all of their functions can
change or disappear:

- librte_bbdev
- librte_bpf
- librte_compressdev
- librte_fib
- librte_flow_classify
- librte_ipsec
- librte_rcu
- librte_rib
- librte_stack
- librte_telemetry

Their status is properly announced in MAINTAINERS.
Remind this status in their headers in a common fashion.
