I sent an e-mail to dpdk dev a few days back asking for help where I outlined what we're doing: We're not doing anything special, just downloading and extracting the archive, then setting CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_MLX5_PMD and CONFIG_RTE_LIBRTE_I40E_16BYTE_RX_DESC to y in config/common_base and then running make install T=arm64-armv8a-linuxapp-gcc -j. As mentioned in the subject, the build server is a Taishan ARM server. We're doing a fresh rebuild everytime. The error doesn't happen everytime, just sometimes - it seems to be random. We don't set RTE_SDK nor RTE_TARGET since https://doc.dpdk.org/guides/linux_gsg/build_dpdk.html#installation-of-dpdk-target-environment-using-make doesn't mention those. I'll try Meson build a few times. How can I enable those two config options in Meson? > Thanks, > ferruh > > > > >>> > >>> > >>>> Fix this by replacing the directive with #include "file" which > >>>> searches for files first in the directory containing the current > >>>> file and other directories only after that. > >>>> > >>>> Signed-off-by: Juraj Linkeš <juraj.lin...@pantheon.tech> > >>> > >>> What about #include <rte_ethdev_trace.h> ? > >>> > >>> Except this, > >>> Acked-by: Thomas Monjalon <tho...@monjalon.net> > >>> > >>> > >>> I would change the title to be more generic (nothing specific to gcc > >>> or Arm > >> here): > >>> ethdev: fix local include > >>> > >>> It needs to be backported, so these lines are required: > >>> Fixes: 7f0a669e7b04 ("ethdev: add allocation helper for virtual > >>> drivers") > >>> Fixes: dcd5c8112bc3 ("ethdev: add PCI driver helpers") > >>> Fixes: ffc905f3b856 ("ethdev: separate driver APIs") > >>> Fixes: 331c447ad913 ("ethdev: separate internal structures into own > >> header") > >>> Cc: sta...@dpdk.org > >>> > >>> > >>> > >
