Subject: ethdev: separate driver APIs
X-Git-Tag: spdx-start~23
X-Git-Url: http://git.droids-corp.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ffc905f3b856b96c6d8d864dba4052104fae4064;p=dpdk.git

ethdev: separate driver APIs

Create a rte_ethdev_driver.h file and move PMD specific APIs here.
Drivers updated to include this new header file.

There is no update in header content and since ethdev.h included by
ethdev_driver.h, nothing changed from driver point of view, only
logically grouping of APIs. From applications point of view they can't
access to driver specific APIs anymore and they shouldn't.

More PMD specific data structures still remain in ethdev.h because of
inline functions in header use them. Those will be handled separately.
