Also I'll add the Acked-by of Luca to the other patch as well and move the Fixes line as it was meant for the 1/2 of these. Overall I think v4 will then be fine, all acks in place and hopefully making it in before -rc4 is defined to fix more peoples builds. Replying to this mail with both updated patches soon, let me know if anything else is holding these back from being accepted. > Fixes: 54d609a13876 ("build: add ppc64 meson build") > > Acked-by: Bruce Richardson <bruce.richardson@intel.com> > Acked-by: Luca Boccassi <bluca@debian.org> > Signed-off-by: Christian Ehrhardt <christian.ehrhardt@canonical.com> > --- > config/meson.build | 21 +++++++++++++++++++++ > 1 file changed, 21 insertions(+) > > diff --git a/config/meson.build b/config/meson.build > index 1af305f46..db32499b3 100644 > --- a/config/meson.build > +++ b/config/meson.build > @@ -7,6 +7,27 @@ if meson.is_cross_build() > else > machine = get_option('machine') > endif > + > +# machine type 'default' is special, it defaults to the per arch agreed common > +# minimal baseline needed for DPDK. > +# That might not be the most optimized, but the most portable version while > +# still being able to support the CPU features required for DPDK. > +# This can be bumped up by the DPDK project, but it can never be an > +# invariant like 'native' > +if machine == 'default' > + if host_machine.cpu_family().startswith('x86') > + # matches the old pre-meson build systems default > + machine = 'corei7' > + elif host_machine.cpu_family().startswith('arm') > + machine = 'armv7-a' > + elif host_machine.cpu_family().startswith('aarch') > + # arm64 manages defaults in config/arm/meson.build > + machine = 'default' > + elif host_machine.cpu_family().startswith('ppc') > + machine = 'power8' > + endif > +endif > + > dpdk_conf.set('RTE_MACHINE', machine) > machine_args = [] > > -- > 2.17.1 > -- Christian Ehrhardt Software Engineer, Ubuntu Server Canonical Ltd ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 17+ messages in thread
