Yes, they are not. But the tap driver code references them. I mean, you
might have done that wrongly. e.g., the build passes if I removed few
includes for linux header files:
diff --git a/drivers/net/tap/rte_eth_tap.c b/drivers/net/tap/rte_eth_tap.c
index 4621c55..2a6bcd0 100644

Interesting! I really did no magic to reproduce it. As said, I can
reproduce it pretty easily with ubuntu 16.04 and fedora 20, just with
default build:
$ make install T=$RTE_SDK
Anyway, the error is straightforward after all: both files (net/if.h and
linux/if.h) define same structures and macros. Including both of them
would result errors like I reported.
