FWIW: I sent diffs to fix the build-system integration over the weekend, as well as a fair fraction of the FIB 2.0 integration...

I have submitted a patch to fix a compile issue in netlink for review, now netlink could compile ok in VPP stable 17.01. https://gerrit.fd.io/r/#/c/5881/ FIx compile issue for netlink I am working on router plugin now, hope to address some issues and make it work again in VPP stable 17.01. For VPP 17.04, make file may need to be changed as per new building system.
