I assume you mean "2.3.90" (which was master), not "2.3.1.90"; I don't think such a version ever existed.  We use ".90" to indicate that the code it contains will be part of the next major release.  In this case, 2.3.90 became 2.4.0.  If you look at master now, you'll see it's version is 2.4.90, which will become 2.5 or 3.0 depending on what we decide to call it.  If you look at branch-2.3, you'll see that it contains the next minor version number 2.3.3, since we don't use the .90 convention for minor releases.

> Please let me know how I can clone  branch-2.4 and if it still has limitation of supporting only dpdk 1.6??

I'll leave this one to Daniele.
