[PATCH 11/13] net/intel: add common vector Tx fns with context handling

Bruce Richardson bruce.richardson at intel.com
Thu Sep 3 19:04:08 CEST 2026


The iavf vector driver has support for more Tx offloads because it has
Tx functions which handle transmit context descriptors. Move those
context-handling functions to the common folder for reuse by other
drivers.
