Hi Folks,
So, I recently used the "make dpdk-install-dev" target at the top
of the VPP build and was surprised to see:
==========================================================
Up-to-date DPDK package already installed
==========================================================
But I shouldn't have been surprised. The word "install" is in the target
name.
What I really wanted was "make dpdk-build-rpms", expecting a bunch of RPM
packages to be left at the top next to vpp-*.rpms.
I need to build an installable set of packages. Not install a set of
packages.
So, is there a way to get to the "build-rpm" target in that DPDK Makefile?
That is, like "dpdk-install-dev", but "dpdk-build-rpms"
I did this obvious patch to the top-level Makefile:
$ git diff
diff --git a/Makefile b/Makefile
index 2af6340..8776af5 100644

But that *rebuilt* the DPDK a second time. Can it instead be
integrated into a notion of the top-level "pkg-rpm" target so that
it is built only once, and also collects the built package,
./dpdk/vpp-dpdk-devel-16.11-vpp1.x86_64.rpm
and copies it up to build-root/ with the rest of the *.rpm files?
Thanks,
jdl
