Hello all,
This is a call for action for CI(s).
Summary:
It is not mandatory to install libatomic on *all* systems, but still
recommended to avoid losing coverage on net/sfc.
But it is *mandatory* if the ABI check is ran on this system.
Details:
The net/sfc driver will now depend on the libatomic package.
This driver was always selected and built so far.
But now, if libatomic is not installed, this driver won't be compiled anymore.
Absence of this driver binary will be flagged as a failure by the ABI
check: the check interprets a hw support removal as a ABI breakage.
Example of output:
...
[2727/2727] Linking target drivers/librte_event_octeontx2.so.21.3
Error: cannot find librte_net_sfc.dump in
