[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] stack: remove experimental tag from API

Gage Eads gage.eads at intel.com
Wed Sep 30 23:39:54 CEST 2020


The stack library was first released in 19.05, and its interfaces have been
stable since their initial introduction. This commit promotes the full
interface to stable, starting with the 20.11 major version.

v3:
- Rebase on top of main.
- Move release notes comment to the API changes section.

v2:
- Added 20.11 tag, will set patch status to 'Deferred' so it is skipped
  for the 20.08 development period.
- Added release notes announcement. release_20_11.rst doesn't exist yet,
  so I made the change to release_20_08.rst then edited the filename
  directly in the patch. This will not apply cleanly.
- Changed rte_stack_version.map version to DPDK_21.
