Subject: [RFC PATCH 05/12] net/bond: rename directory for consistency
Date: Fri, 16 Oct 2026 11:59:43 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261016105950.273068-6-bruce.richardson@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261016105950.273068-1-bruce.richardson@intel.com>
All libraries and drivers in DPDK have the directory name match the
resulting .so library name, with the exception of "net/bonding" which is
internally renamed to "net/bond". The shorter name is used for the .so
object and for dependency tracking in other DPDK components. Remove the
inconsistency by renaming the directory from "bonding" to "bond",
thereby removing the need for any tooling to take account of the fact
that directory names may not be the same as object or dependency names.
