Thanks, William, Eelco and Ben! I fixed couple of things and applied to master! List of changes: * Dropped config.h from headers. * Removed double increment of 'util_xalloc' coverage counter in xmalloc_size_align(). * Fixed style of a couple of comments. * Renamed underscored functions from netdev-afxdp-pool.c to be more OVS-style. Ex.: __umem_elem_pop_n --> umem_elem_pop_n__ Best regards, Ilya Maximets. _______________________________________________ dev mailing list d...@openvswitch.org https://mail.openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/ovs-dev
