To fix, we need to move the\nheader file with the API definitions for the channel commands public,\nand rename the functions accordingly.\n\nThe main change is to rename channel_commands.h to\nrte_power_guest_channel.h so that it gets picked up by the installer\nand copied to /usr/local/include. Other changes include renaming #defines\nto have RTE_ at the beginning instead of CPU_. Finally we refactor the\ncode to work with those changes.\n\n---\nv2 changes\n - re-worked from monolithic patch to a 6 patch patchset for easier review\nv3 changes\n - Ensure both functions added to the API are tagged as experimental\nv4 changes\n - add @internal tag on 2 functions for Doxygen\n - add @warning EXPERIMENTAL tag on 2 functions for Doxygen\n - improve description of lcore param in API docs\n - Improve maintainability sizeof's\n - add the 2 added functions to the version.map file\n\n[PATCH v4 1/6] power: create guest channel public header file\n[PATCH v4 2/6] power: make channel msg functions public\n[PATCH v4 3/6] power: rename public structs\n[PATCH v4 4/6] power: rename defines\n[PATCH v4 5/6] power: add new header file to export list\n[PATCH v4 6/6] power: clean up includes" }
