No we use symbolic links: http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk/commit/mk/rte.lib.mk?id=133b75923 http://dpdk.org/browse/dpdk/tree/mk/rte.lib.mk#n170 On the same topic, you've added a check in 9f8eb1d9: + if (stat(solib->name, &sb) == -1) { + RTE_LOG(ERR, EAL, "Invalid plugin specified: %s: %s\n", + solib->name, strerror(errno)); It is a regression because we cannot anymore load a plugin from LD_LIBRARY_PATH without specifying its full path. It can be tested with scripts/test-null.sh. How do you suggest to fix it? Thanks
