Subject: Re: [lng-odp] [PATCH v3 0/8] First ABI files

Hi, Petri and Brian

Can I understand this patch series are giving various platforms a chance to 
define their own data structures (like odp_event_t etc) in arch directory, 
instead of sharing the same definitions as previously?

Best Regards, Yi


No, this adds ABI spec(s). One ABI spec cover (potentially) many 
implementations. If an implementation is built in ABI compat mode, it has to 
use definitions of the ABI spec. Otherwise (non-ABI compat mode), it can use 
its own definitions.
