This is what we have currently: export PATH=$default_path export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$default_pkgpath export CPPFLAGS=$default_cppflags export CFLAGS=$default_cflags export LDFLAGS=$default_ldflags unset DPDK_MESON_OPTIONS The PATH needs to be restored at each run to avoid using a wrong toolchain. The default value is best taken from the start environment, at the condition no conflicting toolchain is already set. PKG_CONFIG_PATH is specific to each target. I believe it can be reset at each run and configured only from the config file. A default PKG_CONFIG_PATH for all targets does not make any sense. CPPFLAGS, CFLAGS and LDFLAGS could be used to customize some options applying to all targets in some build tests without touching the config file. DPDK_MESON_OPTIONS could be the same as CFLAGS: take a global default from env and restore the value at each run, so each target can have additional options from the config file. Reminder about what can be a config file loaded by devtools/load-devel-config: Note: the complex regexps below are for compatibility with the Make build tests. if echo $DPDK_TARGET | grep -q '^i[3-6]86' ; then export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=${mlxdep}32/lib/pkgconfig elif echo $DPDK_TARGET | grep -q '^x86_64-w' ; then # MinGW : elif echo $DPDK_TARGET | grep -q '^x86_64' ; then export DPDK_MESON_OPTIONS="enable_kmods=true" export CFLAGS="-I$aesnidep -I$root/libsso/libsso-snow3g-0.3.1/include -I$root/libsso/libsso-kasumi-0.3.1/include -I$root/libsso/libsso-zuc-0.1.1-182/include" export LDFLAGS="-L$aesnidep -L$root/libsso/libsso-snow3g-0.3.1/build -L$root/libsso/libsso-kasumi-0.3.1/build -L$root/libsso/libsso-zuc-0.1.1-182/build" export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PKG_CONFIG_PATH:$mlxdep/lib/pkgconfig:$nfbdep/lib64/pkgconfig:$szedep/lib64/pkgconfig:$isaldep/.. elif echo $DPDK_TARGET | grep -q '^arm-' ; then export PATH=$PATH:$root/../pkg/gcc-linaro-6.3.1-2017.05-x86_64_arm-linux-gnueabihf/bin elif echo $DPDK_TARGET | grep -q '^a.*64-' ; then export DPDK_MESON_OPTIONS="lib_musdk_dir=$LIBMUSDK_PATH" elif echo $DPDK_TARGET | grep -q '^p.*pc.*64' ; then export PATH=$PATH:$root/../pkg/powerpc64le-power8--glibc--stable-2018.11-1/bin fi export DPDK_GETMAINTAINER_PATH=$root/linux/scripts/get_maintainer.pl export DPDK_CHECKPATCH_PATH=$root/linux/scripts/checkpatch.pl export DPDK_CHECKPATCH_LINE_LENGTH=100 export DPDK_CHECKPATCH_CODESPELL=$root/codespell/dictionary.txt export DPDK_BUILD_TEST_DIR=$root/dpdk-build export DPDK_ABI_REF_DIR=$DPDK_BUILD_TEST_DIR/abiref #export DPDK_ABI_REF_VERSION=v20.11
