jeudi 10 août 2023, Bruce Richardson:
> With the removal of the kni kernel driver, there are no longer any
> Linux kernel modules in our repository, leaving only modules for FreeBSD
> present. Since:
> 
> * BSD has no issues with out-of-tree modules and
> * There are no in-tree equivalents for those modules in BSD
> 
> there is no point in building for BSD without those modules.
> 
> Therefore, we can remove the enable_kmods option, always building the
> kmods for BSD.
> 
> We can also remove the infrastructure for Linux kmods too, since use of
> out-of-tree modules for Linux is not something the DPDK project wants to
> pursue in future.
