Thanks for testing and review.
I added the following lines to the makefile (just after the include
rte.vars.mk):

	$(info ------------------)
	$(info comma=$(comma))
	$(info $(origin comma))

And it gives me:

	$ make clean
	== Clean lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/kni
	--------------------
	comma=,
	file
	make -C /lib/modules/3.13.0-79-generic/build
M=/home/user/dpdk.org/build/build/lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/kni
O=/lib/modules/3.13.0-79-generic/build clean
	make -C /usr/src/linux-headers-3.13.0-79-generic \
        KBUILD_SRC=/usr/src/linux-headers-3.13.0-79-generic \

KBUILD_EXTMOD="/home/user/dpdk.org/build/build/lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/kni"
-f /usr/src/linux-headers-3.13.0-79-generic/Makefile \
	        clean
	make -f /usr/src/linux-headers-3.13.0-79-generic/scripts/Makefile.clean
obj=/home/user/dpdk.org/build/build/lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/kni
	--------------------
	comma=
	undefined
	tr: missing operand after ‘.-’
	Two strings must be given when translating.
	Try 'tr --help' for more information.
	[...]

Actually this Makefile is used twice, and second time the $(comma)
variable is not defined.

It seems the $(comma) variable is defined in rte.cpuflags.mk when
including rte.vars.mk:

  mk/rte.vars.mk
    mk/target/generic/rte.vars.mk
      mk/rte.cpuflags.mk    (only if KERNELRELEASE is unset, which is
                             not the case for the second call)


Do you see the issue when you do a "make clean"?

Thanks,
Olivier
