Hi Dmitry,

I'm looking at this patch and have some questions.

Why do we need these change below?

1. At the time of the patch there was no dpdk-kmods repo.

2. The patch is for dpdk-draft-windows repo,
   which was using Vistual Studio projects instead of meson.

I thought to add a new Windows driver support, we only need to
compile the drivers/net/xxx, and add the device ID to netuio.inf,
at the dpdk-kmod repo?

Yes.
Particularly for virtio it would also be required to support reading PCI
config space in bus/pci/windows (netuio already provides the support).

Now I understand, thanks. William
