With DPDK 20.11 release, the igb_uio module is no more part of DPDK. There are use cases where this module is required, for example while testing the virtual ports in OvS, the virtual ports are bound to igb_uio module inside a VM. So, this patch provides a Makefile which can be used to build this module and use as needed.
Since there is no more dependency on DPDK headers, this module can be built simply by running make in the source dir Signed-off-by: Hariprasad Govindharajan <hariprasad.govindhara...@intel.com> --- This patch will be part of dpdk-kmods repo https://git.dpdk.org/dpdk-kmods/ --- v6: split the patch into two patches to create a patchset v5: Removed the DPDK dependency v4: Corrected the indentation v3: Edited the commit message and corrected the mistakes in the variable definition v2: Added more information to the commit message --- linux/igb_uio/Makefile | 7 +++++++ 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+) create mode 100644 linux/igb_uio/Makefile diff --git a/linux/igb_uio/Makefile b/linux/igb_uio/Makefile new file mode 100644 index 0000000..09ae5d9 --- /dev/null +++ b/linux/igb_uio/Makefile @@ -0,0 +1,7 @@ +KSRC ?= /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build + +all: + make -C $(KSRC)/ M=$(PWD) + +clean: + make -C $(KSRC)/ M=$(PWD) clean -- 2.7.4
