Hi,
I totally agree with Avi's comments.
This topic is really important for the future of DPDK.
So I think we must give some time to continue the discussion
and have netdev involved in the choices done.
As a consequence, these series should not be merged in the release 16.04.
Thanks for continuing the work.

Hi Thomas,

It is great to have some discussion and feedbacks.
But I doubt not merging in this release will help to have more discussion.

It is better to have them in this release and let people experiment it,
this gives more chance to better discussion.

These features are replacement of KNI, and KNI is not intended to be
removed in this release, so who are using KNI as solution can continue
to use KNI and can test KCP/KDP, so that we can get more feedbacks.

So make the work available from a separate git repo and make it easy for 
people to experiment with it. Code doesn't have to be in a release for 
the sake of experimenting, and removing code is much harder than not 
adding it in the first place, witness KNI.
