FYI, recalling some TODOs and which versions would allow to resolve them.
From https://mails.dpdk.org/archives/dev/2021-January/196000.html:
A script to extract object files from library is still required.
Meson has extract_all_objects(), but they can't be passed as inputs
to custom_target() until 0.52.0 (commit f431cff809).
buildtools/meson.build:
# TODO: starting from Meson 0.51.0 use
# python3 = import('python').find_installation('python',
# modules : python3_required_modules)
config/meson.build:
# TODO: use cc.get_linker_id() with Meson >= 0.54
is_ms_linker = is_windows and (cc.get_id() == 'clang')
