Learn about ABI versioning implementation in DPDK through this 25-minute technical talk from AMD's Ferruh Yigit. Explore the fundamentals of ABI stability through versioning, with practical examples and a step-by-step approach to implementation. Gain insights into API changes, version symbols, static symbols, and techniques for maintaining ABI compatibility in packet processing applications. Discover how to properly implement versioning in projects using DPDK libraries, which accelerate network performance across x86, POWER, and ARM architectures in Linux userland and FreeBSD environments.
