Hi, In order to build the Fedora RPM with DPDK some changes to the spec file are required. However, I was told that not all users want to build with DPDK or even have the DPDK libs installed. It seems a fair request if you are working with OVS only.
Therefore we have two options. 1) add the option '--with dpdk' to the current spec file, so that users that doesn't want DPDK just follow the usual steps and that's it. DPDK users only need to pass those two arguments to have the OVS+DPDK RPM files. 2) Create another copy of .spec (openvswitch-dpdk.spec?) with DPDK support enabled. Another question is static versus shared linking. My opinion is that we should go with (1), shared linked, but I don't know if it covers all use-cases. Thoughts?
