Subject: Re: [RFC PATCH] eal/riscv: add support for zawrs extension
Date: Wed, 8 May 2024 13:48:32 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAJcPQBrMq5tmJA-E25ccjG8dUXy3Jj_D63=6aRTBCeprm_Neng@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20240502144149.66446-1-daniel.gregory@bytedance.com>

I'm terribly sorry for the delay in review. I'll try to get to it in
the next 2 days.
