Hi Jerin,

In patch subject, as tag, other drivers are using only driver name, and
Intel drivers also has "driver/base", since base code has some special
case. For thunderx, what do you think about keeping subject as:
 "thunderx: ...."
Hi Ferruh,

We may add crypto or other builtin ThunderX HW accelerated block drivers
in future to DPDK.
So that is the reason why I thought of keeping the subject as thunderx/nicvf.
If you don't have any objection then I would like to keep it as
thunderx/nicvf or just nicvf.
I don't like the name nicvf but I guess that's the official name?

Thus I agree the title should be thunderx/nicvf or thunderx_nicvf.
I think I'd prefer the underscore version.
underscore option looks bit odd when comparing to exiting other git logs.
as Ferruh suggested "net/thunderx:" looks good to me. If their no
objections I would like to go with "net/thunderx:"
net/thunderx would be easy to parse if all other drivers were using
net/ or crypto/ prefixes.
Do we want to add these prefixes to driver commits?
