Correct a publicly exposed enum max value has changed - I don't believe this is an ABI break, but a backward compatible ABI change was expected with this patchset. Code compiled against eg 19.11 or 20.02 is expected to continue operating correctly. The new flags were only added at the end of the enum, ensuring to not change the meaning of any existing flags which would be compiled-in constants to the application binary. The actual size of the CPU flags array is a DPDK internal structure (in a .c file), and is hidden from the application, and never allocated by an application - so no possible mismatch in ABI there? Applications compiled against the older ABI will just not know about the newer flags - but suffer no breakage. @ABI compatibility folks, please review too - but to the best of my understanding this is not an ABI break, but a backwards compatible update of CPU flag lists? Thanks for flagging the CI results David! Regards, -Harry
