Hello,
   Thank you for the discussion on ABI, it was a good discussion. I
think the discussion was scattered across use cases and
implementation.

I think I need to structure the discussion. In this email, can we
focus on the use case (what is the problem we are trying to solve)? We
can come to the implementation details later. This discussion may
become philosophical, I think that is ok. It is important to agree on
what we want to support for ODP.

The aim for me is to understand the use case and then map it to the code.

I have following questions about use cases.

1) Is the aim to provide backward binary compatibility for the
application between different versions of ODP (application compiled
for ver1 of ODP will work with ver2 of ODP)?

2) Is the aim to provide binary compatibility across SoCs with common
processor architectures? i.e. application compiled for Cavium SoC
should work on NXP SoC without recompilation.

3) Are there any other use cases?

Thank you,
Honnappa
