Re: [PATCH v3 1/6] szedata2: add new poll mode driver

[Thomas Monjalon <thomas.monjalon@6wind.com>]

Hi,

I'm doing some last checks before merging.

The libsze2 depends on libcommlbr so it would be better to list it on
https://www.liberouter.org/technologies/netcope/access-to-libsze2-library

A patch is needed in mk/ to allow linking these dependencies from a
non-standard directory: http://dpdk.org/dev/patchwork/patch/9023

As only 64-bit versions of the libraries are provided, I guess we
could mention it is currently supported only on x86-64.

igb_stats is a name inherited from old times. It is related to the first
DPDK driver (igb).
I will rename it to "stats".

This check would not compile in 32-bit environment (which is not supported).

This data variable is not used before the patch 4/6.
I will move it.
