[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v3 0/4] abi breakage checks for meson

[Conor Walsh <conor.walsh@intel.com>]

This patchset allows developers to check ABI breakages during build
time.
Currently checking that the DPDK ABI has not changed before up-streaming
code is not intuitive. The current method, requires the contributor to
use either the test-build.sh and test-meson-build.sh tools, along side
some environmental variables to test their changes. Contributors in many
cases are either unaware or unable to do this themselves, leading to a
potentially serious situation where they are unknowingly up-streaming
code that breaks the ABI. These breakages are then caught by Travis, but
it is more efficient if this is caught locally before up-streaming.

---
v2: Spelling mistake, corrected spelling of environmental

---
v3:
 - Fix for bug which now allows meson < 0.48.0 to be used
 - Various coding style changes throughout
 - Minor bug fixes to the various meson.build files

Conor Walsh (4):
  devtools: bug fix for gen-abi.sh
  devtools: add generation of compressed abi dump archives
  buildtools: add script to setup abi checks for meson
  build: add abi breakage checks to meson
