Marco, If you want to do downstream packaging and link against shared dpdk, you can do it by compiling directly from autotools project. Basically:
cd src/ autoreconf -fis export CFLAGS=…. ./configure —flags make make install Please note that we are intentionally linking against static DPDK libs as want to have flexibility of adding additional patches to dpdk build. Currently we have bunch of patcher related to Mellanox ConnectX-5 which are not available in latest dpdk release. May I ask what are your distro guidance when it comes to optimization of the code for specific microarchitectures? Do you need to support all x86_64 systems or just few latest generations? How do you compile DPDK?
