  Introduce new function for IPv6 header extension parsing able to
determine extension length and next protocol number.

This function is helpful when implementing IPv6 header traversing.

Rte_experimental may not be required for inline functions.

I see that there is some compilation issues with respect to IPPROTO_xxx fields. These are reported in patchworks if you need details.

Could you please fix these and send next rev.

AFAIK we do need that tag for both inline and non-inline functions,
till API will be transferred to 'stable' state:

$ find lib -type f | xargs grep __rte_experimental | grep inline | wc -l

My first impression was that this API was not exposed. Inline APIs are normally not exposed, 
So I thought rte_experimental is not required. I believe only exposed APIs
Need to be tagged with rte_experimental.

Now since this API is exposed to the application as well, it should have an entry in the .map file.
Otherwise shared build will fail I think for application.

Hi Akhil,
I've double checked and there is no problem with linking application against shared libraries, because inline functions are being inlined during compilation and before linking is done. To be more specific: there is not such symbol as rte_ipv6_get_next_ext in ipsec-secgw.o (which uses this function in prepare_one_packet function).

There are a number of inline experimental functions defined today  and they are mostly (43 out of 59) not listed in maps, e.g. rte_ticketlock functions family defined here:
lib/librte_eal/common/include/generic/rte_ticketlock.h

Is there any particular reason we should put inlines in maps? Maps are used by linker to control versions of shared libraries and inlines are not processed by linker.

I am aware this patchset causes build failures on BSDs - this is a project-wide issue which I have addressed here:
http://patchwork.dpdk.org/patch/53406/
I'll put a note in the next version of this patchset's cover that it depends on abovementioned patchset.
