Subject: Re: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 1/3] driver/net/mpipe: support native build on tilegx platform.
Date: Tue, 9 Feb 2016 21:15:27 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <DB5PR02MB10157D3226559BCFE8CB1B69BCD60@DB5PR02MB1015.eurprd02.prod.outlook.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1753191.PlZlSmjA8r@xps13>

Looks like this patch serie has been merged into dpdk-next-net/rel_16_04.
What would be the usual way to submit changes for new comments? Would it be incremental changes (new commit) based on previous one? Thanks.

OK
So we'll discuss how to integrate it later.

Yes please remove it.

> [lsun] Make sense. The current code (before the change) has default value 'CROSS ?= tile-' defined, which cause some issue when doing native build. Another way is to define it as "CROSS ?=" just like other platforms. So when doing cross-compile, we could pass " CROSS=tile-" .

No need to keep a "CROSS ?=" line.
The variables defined in the command line get the priority.

Yes that's what I've experienced.

Please keep us informed when the toolchain is ready. Thanks
