[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v4 0/6] mlx ibverbs linking in meson

[Thomas Monjalon <thomas@monjalon.net>]

This is the follow-up of the feature I added one year ago:
static linkage of libibverbs in mlx PMDs.
The first implementation was focused on "make".
This second round does the same with "meson".

With the meson option ibverbs_link, only the mode "shared"
was working correctly.
This patchset adds the mode "static" and fixes the mode "dlopen".


changes in v4:
- fix lib ordering
- simplify conditions by using subdir_done()

changes in v3:
- get cflags with pkg-config invocation
- drop addition of global variable hidden_deps
- remove overlinking in dlopen mode

changes in v2:
- split mlx patch for normal addition and workarounds
- fix ldflags for ibverbs installed in a standard directory
- fix libs order leading to undefined references
- add doc for hidden_deps
- improve explanations in commit logs
