When would you need to have something > ready to meet that deadline? It is OK to postpone to v19.02 if it is difficult. According to https://core.dpdk.org/roadmap/, The integration deadline for v18.11 is October 5, 2018. Considering it only driver change, two/three weeks would be enough to review it. So September mid would be a reasonable target. > > Best regards, > Mattias
