Re: [meta-intel] [PATCHv2 2/2] meta-romley: add Intel DPDK v1.6.0r2 support Romley machine config
Hi Ross, The reason I placed it as default build for Romley as it can support our customer better. There are 2 reason we decided to make default package for Romley:- 1. Some of Intel CID's customer which they are not experienced Yocto Project they can simply build the image from there by bitbake core-image-sato. 2. For next major release meta-intel, dpdk will be part of the core-image-sato for Romley bsp and customer can benefit from it directly without having thru to configure too much on their local.conf Thanks.

[meta-intel] [PATCHv2 2/2] meta-romley: add Intel DPDK v1.6.0r2 support Romley machine config
From: Chan Wei Sern wei.sern.c...@intel.com
Added MACHINE_EXTRA_RRECOMMENDS to include dpdk for romley machine
configuration so that building on Romley will automatically pick up
Intel DPDK. This is an initial version of Intel DPDK support in Romley
that is default target version 1.6.0r2.
