i guess you mean our examples or if dpdk is configured as a sub-project?

for examples i could explicitly suppress in examples with -Wno-vla but
that means any that use VLAs could not be built with MSVC.

for sub-module and sub-project of dpdk i feel like these
add_project_arguments are not imparted on the application with
encapsulating project meson setup no?

anyone know? Bruce? Stephen?
