[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v6] power: add fifo per core for JSON interface

Hunt, David david.hunt at intel.com
Tue Jul 9 17:27:57 CEST 2019


Hi Thomas,

    Fyi, I am unable mark v4 as superseded in patchwork 
(http://patches.dpdk.org/project/dpdk/list/?series=4997), although I've 
done that with v5, v6 is the latest version.

Rgds,
Dave.
