Hi,

Few comments detailed below.
The new compilation dependencies management needs changes
in the Makefile.
And the new log system should be used.

I don't how to classify this classify library :)
If it is using librte_table, it should be part of Packet Framework?
If not part of Packet Framework, please move it before "Distributor".

The library is missing in the release notes (.so section and new features).

We must stop adding the legacy log types.
Please switch to dynamic logs and remove CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_CLASSIFY_DEBUG.

Now the dependencies to internal libraries must be explicitly declared
in LDLIBS.

Yes, rte_flow_classify is on top of packet framework.
