Subject: Re: [dpdk-users] [dpdk-dev] Issue->Dpdk for arm cortex-a15 compilation
Date: Tue, 16 May 2017 18:57:41 +0530	[thread overview]

In-Reply-To: <20170516142808.4abedf71.viktorin@rehivetech.com>

I assume after git clone https://github.com/RehiveTech/buildroot
 I need to git checkout dpdk-support-v5
I get legacy error on running make
root@xav101000739:~/Downloads/dpdk/newbuildroot/buildroot# *make *
*Makefile.legacy:12: *** "You have legacy configuration in your .config!
Please check your configuration.".  Stop.*


Thanks
