while the driver api is "internal" we agreed some time ago that drivers could be built external to the dpdk tree. by enabling the meson setup option -Denable_driver_sdk=true.
it was agreed that the driver api was internal and would attract no binary compatibility support which was fine. this change has now imposed a further restriction that out of tree drivers have to be authored in C only as non-C++ compatible code will invariably leak into the internal structures. you won't allow us to build C++ drivers in the dpdk tree and it seems now you are preventing building of C++ drivers outside of the tree too. could we please re-evaluate this. thanks. commit 7a335720575507f55b723b1e10bfea7daeba1386 Author: Thomas Monjalon <[email protected]> Date: Wed Sep 15 18:46:35 2021 +0200 lib: remove C++ include guard from private headers The private headers are compiled internally with a C compiler. Thus extern "C" declaration is useless in such files. Signed-off-by: Thomas Monjalon <[email protected]>
