Subject: [PATCH v2 3/3] ring: cleanup the C11 code
Date: Thu,  4 Jun 2026 09:32:28 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260604163656.1226902-4-stephen@networkplumber.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260604163656.1226902-1-stephen@networkplumber.org>

Put the C11 code in the rte_ring_elem_pvt.h file
and only have the GCC vs C11 code split in separate includes.

The internal functions to update tail of ring no longer use
the enqueue flag argument.
