First we need to root cause this before trying to solve it. Honnappa also said
he can reproduce this but our CI builds can't (we are talking about tens of
builds daily on various platforms), need to understand why.
Also from Makefile I can't see how this is happening, I am feeling uneasy to fix
something before figuring out how/why it is failing.
Can you please try to collect more data on when/how this happens, initial
questions I can think of:
- Can you reproduce this with meson build?
- Is it bare DPDK build, or build part of other project (I guess I saw fd.io on
the link)
- - If this is not bare DPDK build what changes has been done to build system?
- Do you see this with fresh build (new clone) or rebuild of existing clone?
- Can you confirm you have correct RTE_SDK and RTE_TARGET environment variables?
- Can you please share your build command?
Thanks,
