Thanks for the patch, just a few comments below.
@Ilya, I think Sunil has addressed most of the concerns you flagged, however
I'd like your opinion on the python script?
I'd like to have this patch merged to dpdk-latest before creating our RFC patch
to move OVS master to use 20.11 so it would be nice to have this
reviewed/reworked so as to include the changes.
> [1] 540e70fba6d5 ("build: Add support for DPDK meson build")
Probably going forward it's better to use the Fixes tag, so
Fixes: 540e70fba6d5 ("build: Add support for DPDK meson build")

A summary of the changes would be good hear, they will be stripped off when be
applied.
Although in the case it is a new patch rather than part of a revision so I
understand why
You ma not have put it here.

I don't have an issue with above, I think the comment explains the purpose,
however Ilya might have a different approach without the script?
