For the SKB function change I had to change the ifdef in the kcompat.h file
around line 3848 (I think) to:
/* #### Changed the next line to use (3,13,8) instead of (3,14,0) KeithW */
#if ( LINUX_VERSION_CODE < KERNEL_VERSION(3,13,8) )
#if (!(RHEL_RELEASE_CODE && RHEL_RELEASE_CODE >= RHEL_RELEASE_VERSION(7,0)))
#ifdef NETIF_F_RXHASH
#define PKT_HASH_TYPE_L3 0
static inline void
skb_set_hash(struct sk_buff *skb, __u32 hash, __always_unused int type)
{
skb->rxhash = hash;
}
#endif /* NETIF_F_RXHASH */
#endif /* < RHEL7 */
#endif /* < 3.14.0 */

Hi,
I got the following error when I tried to compile 1.7.0 release tarball on a

Apparently the version check around 'skb_set_hash' in kcompat.h failed for some
reason. To work around it, I temporarily commented out that 'skb_set_hash'
definition code and rte_kni complied fine. But it failed again in
librte_pmd_ixgbe:

My CPU is the older Intel C2D E6550 which does not have sse4.2/sse4.1 support.
Is there a way to work around this?
