Damjan, Since dpdk is running as plugin in VPP, I misunderstood dpdk was used in shared lib. In fact, dpdk is compiled as static lib firstly and dpdk_plugin call dpdk functions, right?

May I ask what are you trying to achieve with this particular patch and vpp? -- Damjan On 2 May 2018, at 08:59, Yang, Zhiyong <zhiyong.y...@intel.com<mailto:zhiyong.y...@intel.com>> wrote: BTW, Because I want to test the following DPDK patch in VPP. http://www.dpdk.org/dev/patchwork/patch/39154/ thanks Zhiyong From: vpp-dev@lists.fd.io<mailto:vpp-dev@lists.fd.io> [mailto:vpp-dev@lists.fd.io] On Behalf Of Zhiyong Yang Sent: Wednesday, May 2, 2018 1:36 PM To: dmarion.li...@gmail.com<mailto:dmarion.li...@gmail.com> Cc: vpp-dev@lists.fd.io<mailto:vpp-dev@lists.fd.io> Subject: [vpp-dev] how to apply a dpdk makefile patch?
