The functions used by the drivers must be internal,
while the function and variables used in inline functions
must be experimental.
These are the changes done in the shared library:
- DF .text Base rte_regexdev_get_device_by_name
+ DF .text INTERNAL rte_regexdev_get_device_by_name
- DF .text Base rte_regexdev_register
+ DF .text INTERNAL rte_regexdev_register
- DF .text Base rte_regexdev_unregister
+ DF .text INTERNAL rte_regexdev_unregister
- DF .text Base rte_regexdev_is_valid_dev
+ DF .text EXPERIMENTAL rte_regexdev_is_valid_dev
- DO .bss Base rte_regex_devices
+ DO .bss EXPERIMENTAL rte_regex_devices
- DO .bss Base rte_regexdev_logtype
+ DO .bss EXPERIMENTAL rte_regexdev_logtype
Because these symbols were exported in the default section in DPDK 21.11,
any change in these functions would be seen as incompatible
by the ABI compatibility check.
An exception rule is added for this experimental library,
so the ABI check will skip it until the next ABI version.

There is no reason for the DPDK libraries to all have 'librte_' prefix on
the directory names. This prefix makes the directory names longer and also
makes it awkward to add features referring to individual libraries in the
build - should the lib names be specified with or without the prefix.
Therefore, we can just remove the library prefix and use the library's
unique name as the directory name, i.e. 'eal' rather than 'librte_eal'
