The kernel modules are no longer built by default, and the igb_uio module has been moved out of the main repository to a separate one. For igb_uio, it is recommended you use vfio-pci module from the upstream kernel instead (it's included in all major Linux distro kernel's by default, so no additional compile necessary). For kni module, if that is a module you use, configure meson with "-Denable_kmods=true", and it will be built. > The structure of examples also changed and was replaced by a single > huge file. Is it really tested and published as LTS? Not sure what you mean about the structure of the examples. Their directory layout is largely the same as what it was, only the way in which they are built is now a little different (as with the rest of DPDK). /Bruce
