To allow more flexibility in enabling additional build checks to DPDK build process, we can add a developer mode option to the build. With this option enabled, extra checks of interest to DPDK developers rather than users can be done on the code, without having to worry about possible user impacts. The new option can be manually enabled or disabled by using meson configure, but by default is set to "auto" which means it is enabled if building from a git repo.
Once the developer mode is added in the first patch, the other patches of this series turn off a number of previous features for non-developer builds, since those features would only be of interest to DPDK devs. Bruce Richardson (3): build: enable a developer mode setting build: hide debug messages in non-developer mode build: limit symbol checks to developer mode doc/guides/contributing/coding_style.rst | 8 ++++++++ drivers/meson.build | 26 ++++++++++++++---------- lib/meson.build | 12 ++++++----- meson.build | 14 +++++++++++++ meson_options.txt | 2 ++ 5 files changed, 46 insertions(+), 16 deletions(-) -- 2.27.0
