With the ongoing work to make it easier to only build a subset\nof the libraries in DPDK, we can also work to expand the list of\nlibraries which can be enabled/disabled as desired.\n\nThis patch addresses a number of the \"low-hanging fruit\" libraries,\nwhere only the unit test builds need minor changes to support\nmaking the library optional. The rest of the build system is already\nwell set up for selective disabling of libraries.\n\nFor better support of enabling components, especially those more\nintegrated into DPDK unit tests, rework of the test meson.build file\nis likely needed. For example, it could probably be better rewritten\nto use a dictionary of files and the dependencies of each file, and\nthe unit test commands each provides. However, such rework is a\nsignificant effort, and outside the scope of this patchset.\n\nBruce Richardson (7):\n build: make most device classes optional\n build: make membership library optional\n build: make bpf library optional\n build: make efd library optional\n build: make distributor library optional\n build: make fragmentation libary optional\n build: make reorder library optional\n\n app/test/meson.build | 81 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++-----------------\n lib/meson.build | 13 +++++++\n 2 files changed, 63 insertions(+), 31 deletions(-)\n\n--\n2.39.2" }
