This is the follow-up of the feature I added one year ago: static linkage of libibverbs in mlx PMDs. The first implementation was focused on "make". This second round does the same with "meson".
With the meson option ibverbs_link, only the mode "shared" was working correctly. This patchset adds the mode "static" and fixes the mode "dlopen". changes in v3: - get cflags with pkg-config invocation - drop addition of global variable hidden_deps - remove overlinking in dlopen mode changes in v2: - split mlx patch for normal addition and workarounds - fix ldflags for ibverbs installed in a standard directory - fix libs order leading to undefined references - add doc for hidden_deps - improve explanations in commit logs Thomas Monjalon (5): net/mlx: add static ibverbs linkage with meson buildtools: get static mlx dependencies for meson net/mlx: workaround static linkage with meson net/mlx: rename meson variable for dlopen option net/mlx: fix overlinking with meson and glue dlopen buildtools/meson.build | 2 ++ buildtools/options-ibverbs-static.sh | 10 ++++++++-- doc/guides/nics/mlx4.rst | 4 ++++ doc/guides/nics/mlx5.rst | 4 ++++ drivers/common/mlx5/meson.build | 27 +++++++++++++++++++------- drivers/net/mlx4/meson.build | 29 ++++++++++++++++++++-------- meson_options.txt | 4 ++-- 7 files changed, 61 insertions(+), 19 deletions(-) -- 2.25.0
