That should mean that the test app (via eal) auto-loads all drivers from EAL_PMD_PATH (/usr/local/...). It would save having to make further changes to this file to link in any additional drivers.
EAL_PMD_PATH is based off of $prefix for the build or install, so you can adjust that using meson options, if putting the drivers in /usr/local is not desirable for your test environments. /Bruce
