vppapigen: api crc checker
crcchecker is a tool for enforcement of the binary API.
1. Production APIs should never change.
2. An API can be deprecated across three release cycles.
Release 1: API is marked as deprecated.
option deprecated="vyy.mm";
option replaced_by="new_api_2";
Release 2: both old and new APIs are supported
Release 3: the deprecated API is deleted.
3. APIs that are experimental / not released are not checked.
An API message can be individually marked as in progress, by:
option status="in_progress";
In the API definition.
The definition of a "production API" is if the major version in the API file is > 0.
extras/scripts/crcchecker.py --check-patchset # returns -1 if backwards incompatible
extras/scripts/crcchecker.py --dump-manifest
extras/scripts/crcchecker.py --git-revision v20.01 <files>
extras/scripts/crcchecker.py -- diff <oldfile> <newfile>
This patch integrates the tool in "make checkstyle-api".
A future patch is required to integrate the tool in the verify job.
I.e. this patch does not enable enforcement through Jenkins.
